PD Consulting was founded by Cahit Yılmaz and Hünkar İvgen in June of 2011. After long years of working in various Investment Banks and Brokerage Houses, beginning with 2004, they started to offer consulting in Corporate Finance issues.

Hence, demand for qualified and seasoned services of consultants for all sorts of corporate finance activities such as establishing new companies, institutionalizations, growth projects based on new investments, fulfilling credit needs, and of course valuation of companies for Mergers and Acquisition activities also increased significantly.
