The Consulting Report is pleased to announce The Top Private Equity Consultants and Leaders of 2026
NEW YORK, Oct. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Consulting Report is pleased to announce The Top Private Equity Consultants and Leaders of 2026. Private equity continues to command an extraordinary presence in global business, directing vast pools of capital toward acquisitions and the growth of companies across major industries. With trillions of dollars under management, private equity firms wield considerable influence over how businesses expand and where new opportunities emerge. Their investment decisions can reshape entire industries, with consequences extending far beyond the companies they acquire.
The ambitions of private equity firms depend on far more than the capital at their disposal. Every acquisition carries assumptions about a company's prospects, and every investment thesis must ultimately stand up to actual business performance. Private equity consultants help investors separate genuine opportunities from costly miscalculations, while advising businesses across industries ranging from healthcare and technology to manufacturing and infrastructure. This year's honorees have distinguished themselves through the quality of their judgment and their contributions to the success of private equity investments.
To determine this year's list, consultants and leaders were evaluated based on their depth of specialized experience, advisory impact, industry influence, and leadership within their firms. Please join us in celebrating The Top Private Equity Consultants and Leaders of 2026.
This year's awardees include Rachel Barton (Accenture), Mark Maitland (Simon-Kucher), Paul Edwards (Grant Thornton Stax), Keith Campbell (West Monroe), Matt Carstens (Brooks International), Apurva Nair (Oliver Wyman), Sean McDevitt (Arthur D. Little), Colleen Corwell (Kroll), Andrew Kadar (L.E.K. Consulting), Michael Vaccarella (Wipfli Advisory LLC), Dave Clement (Simon-Kucher), Brent Fisher (Riveron), David Jadwin (Maine Pointe), Carl Evander (OC&C Strategy Consultants), Robert Lytle (Grant Thornton Stax), Craig Arends (CLA), Nick Greenwood (Elixirr), and Roxana Fariborz (FTI Consulting).
