The Rhino Difference:

Thesis-Centered.

Rhino diligence isn’t a “check the box” exercise. We get laser focused on the specifics of your investment thesis to give you the supporting data you need to make an informed decision.

Qualitative and Quantitative.

Most groups are strong on one side or the other. Rhino leads with primary research, using surveys and in-depth interviews to uncover insights that can't be captured otherwise. We supplement this with secondary research to round out the analysis and give you all the data points you need.

Objective and Pragmatic.

Rhino works hard to maintain objectivity. We work with firms that want the right answer, not just the answer they want to hear. At the same time, we understand that you’re great at what you do for a reason. If you disagree with our recommendations, we’re willing to be convinced otherwise.

Operator-Informed.

Rhino leadership has been on both sides of the table. Our analysis and recommendations are informed by our experience as operators. We know which initiatives are easy and which are hard. We understand the dynamics of change management. We know what will be involved in implementation. Our recommendations take all of this into account.
