CAS Continues M&A Advisory Activity in Accounts Receivable Management Sector with Strategic Multi-Industry Transaction
Philadelphia, PA – May 31, 2025 – Corporate Advisory Solutions (CAS), a leading investment banking and M&A advisory firm specializing in the Global Outsourced (tech-enabled) Business Services (OBS) sector, announced today the successful completion of its role as buy-side M&A advisor to Caine & Weiner (“C&W”) in its acquisition of Collection Consultants of California (“CCOC”). The transaction represents a strategic expansion for C&W, enhancing its specialized capabilities across multiple sectors including healthcare and education.
“It was a pleasure advising C&W on the strategic acquisition of CCOC,” said Nick Ciabattone, Director at Corporate Advisory Solutions. “Working closely with both the C&W and CCOC teams was incredibly rewarding. Their shared commitment to combining best practices and complementary strengths made for a seamless transaction. We’re confident this partnership sets the stage for long-term success and opens the door to tremendous growth opportunities.”
The acquisition brings together CCOC’s 40+ years of specialized receivables expertise in healthcare and education with the depth, diversity, and support of a large national ARM business in C&W. CCOC will operate as Collection Consultants of California, a Caine & Weiner Company, maintaining its brand identity while gaining access to expanded capabilities. CCOC’s leadership team will remain in place, ensuring uninterrupted client service.
This marks C&W’s second acquisition with CAS in the past six months and illustrates a growing trend in the accounts receivable management (ARM) sector—where strategic consolidation in specialized verticals is being driven by opportunities to scale operations, adopt advanced technologies, and strengthen compliance and data security frameworks.
