Financial Executives Consulting Group

What Financial Executives Consulting Group does

The Financial Executives Consulting Group, LLC (The FECG) is a privately held professional services firm founded in 1999 and headquartered in Weston, Connecticut. The firm supplies senior financial executives — CFOs, Controllers, Treasurers, Internal Auditors, and V.P. Tax leaders — to companies on an interim, project, or permanent placement basis. Service lines are organized into specialized practice areas: CFO/Controller placement, Treasury consulting, Private Equity financial officer services, and broader financial/risk management advisory covering capital markets, FX/interest-rate hedging, M&A due diligence, business valuations, and financial systems upgrades.

Delivery is built around a network-based model rather than a traditional consulting pyramid. The firm itself maintains a lean staff of 1-10 employees, anchored by two Managing Partners (Matthew R. Bud, founder and Chairman of The FENG; Bruce C. Lynn, treasury and financial systems specialist). Project execution is fulfilled by senior practitioners (20+ years of experience) drawn from The Financial Executives Networking Group (The FENG), a 35,000-member community of senior financial professionals that Managing Partner Bud has chaired since 1996. This structure positions FECG as a senior-only 'brains and muscle' alternative to Big 5 advisory firms, without the overhead of junior staffing.

Commercially, FECG generates revenue through professional services fees — interim staffing billings, project-based consulting engagements, and executive search retainers — priced on a quote basis according to scope, duration, and seniority. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The customer base spans Fortune 500 names (Scotiabank, Reeds Inc., Beyond Air) down to SMBs and PE-owned portfolio companies across more than 20 industries, with documented international reach into Canada and continental Europe. The firm is not funded by institutional capital, has no parent company, and discloses no subsidiaries or M&A activity.
