What borchersconsulting.com does

Borchers Consulting GmbH is a privately held, Frankfurt am Main-based boutique management consulting firm specializing in financial services transformation. The firm is led by Managing Director Fabian Borchers, who brings over twelve years of financial services consulting experience, including tenure at a prominent global consulting firm. Its services target three primary verticals: banks (savings banks, retail and cooperative banks, global commercial banks, and international banks with EMA-region branches), asset managers (pension funds, German and foreign fund companies), and real estate companies (commercial and residential property firms and property fund vehicles), with delivery scope covering both German and international clients.

The firm offers three integrated service lines: CFO Transformation Advisory (target operating model design, regulatory compliance including CSRD, accounting conversions, and regulatory reporting conversions, plus digitalization of finance functions); Reorganization and Integration Advisory (carve-outs, post-merger integration, in/outsourcing, new bank or branch establishment, and turnaround management); and Interim Management (temporary placement in CFO, Head of Finance, COO, and strategic roles). Delivery is led by Borchers personally, supplemented by a flexible network of consultants, working students, and cooperation partners, with regulatory expertise augmented by a scientific advisory board member (Prof. Dr. Michael Iselborn).

The business model is professional services billing on a project basis, with pricing individually negotiated based on scope, duration, and complexity. Go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven: engagement is initiated via direct outreach to the Managing Director or through project enquiry forms on the bilingual German/English website, with the LinkedIn company page serving as the primary digital channel. The firm holds no proprietary technology platform, has no disclosed external investors, and operates from a single Frankfurt headquarters with international project experience across the UK, Switzerland, Iran, Liechtenstein, Spain, and the USA.
