Who We Are

Knowing exactly who to call.

We are a discreet, globally connected consultancy built on one purpose: getting difficult things done. Over many years we have developed a deep, trusted network of the right people in the right places — operators, advisors, specialists, and decision-makers across business, property, finance, and personal matters.

When a problem is stuck, sensitive, cross-border, or simply too complex to navigate alone, clients bring it to us. We identify the people who can move it, coordinate them, and stay on the matter until it is resolved. Clients are never passed from desk to desk — one point of contact owns the outcome from the first conversation to the result.

Our value is not a directory of names. It is knowing exactly who to call, trusting that they will deliver, and managing the whole matter so you never have to.

What We Solve

One contact. The right people. Done.

Our remit is deliberately broad. If it can be solved, it falls within our scope.

I

Business & deals

Negotiations, partnerships, introductions, stalled deals, and complex commercial matters — moved forward and closed.

II

Property

Acquisitions, sales, disputes, and complications, including across borders, handled with trusted people on the ground.

III

Finance & company

Company structuring, accounts, transfers, and corporate matters that become tangled — untangled and made to move, always through properly regulated channels.

IV

Personal & private

Time-critical, sensitive personal situations handled quietly, with the connections to act fast.

V

The unusual

Where a problem doesn’t fit a neat category, we still take it on. Our value is finding a route where others see a wall.

VI

Introductions & access

The right introduction, to the right person, at the right moment. Access is often the whole of the matter.

How We Handle Things

Simple to start. Relentless to finish.

01

You bring us the problem

A short, confidential conversation — or a single email — is all it takes to begin. The situation, what you need, the timeframe. No long onboarding, no friction.

02

We scope the matter

We assess whether we are the right people, identify the route others miss, and tell you honestly whether and how we can help. If we can’t add value, we say so.

03

We assemble the team

We draw the right specialists from our network — chosen for reliability, operating lawfully within the relevant jurisdiction.

04

We resolve it

We coordinate the work, manage the moving parts, and keep you informed. We stay on it until the matter is resolved properly — not merely progressed.

Investigation & Due Diligence

Some problems can only be solved once you know the truth.

We provide reliable investigation and due-diligence capability through vetted, licensed professionals, engaged lawfully and discreetly. It is one of the most valued parts of what we offer.

Typical work
  • Verifying who you are really dealing with before a deal, partnership, or transaction.
  • Background, reputation, and integrity checks on individuals and companies.
  • Asset and financial-standing verification within lawful means.
  • Locating people, assets, or information relevant to a legitimate matter.
  • Discreet fact-finding to support a decision, negotiation, or dispute.

All investigative work is carried out by appropriately qualified practitioners and stays strictly within the law and the applicable data-protection rules of each jurisdiction. We protect our clients precisely because we do this properly.

Engagement & Fees

Clear terms. No surprises.

Most matters begin with a brief, confidential conversation to understand the problem and confirm we are the right people to solve it. From there:

i

Scope

We agree the scope of the matter and confirm the result you are looking for.

ii

Hourly rate

Work is charged at an hourly rate, agreed in advance and set out in writing before we begin. For larger or longer matters we can agree a capped or fixed project fee.

iii

Mobilise

Once terms are agreed, we assemble the team and begin working to resolve your matter fully and efficiently.

iv

Costs & disbursements

Specialist third parties and any direct costs are agreed with you in advance and billed transparently, at cost where appropriate.

Rate card and current hourly rate available on request.

Why Clients Trust Us

The Founder

Built on a track record of results.

HGEFounder & CEO

Harry George Edward

Group Founder & Chief Executive

Harry began his entrepreneurial journey in 2016, founding a sports supplement brand that he grew rapidly and exited — a seven-figure growth and exit.

He then moved into care-home development, building and developing care homes across the United Kingdom for several years — delivering complex projects from the ground up.

He went on to found Salus Group, an all-round group of companies operating across property, development, and more. Maecenas & Co. is the natural extension of that experience: a discreet, globally connected practice built to solve the problems others can’t.

Over the years he has built a trusted network of connections spanning London, Dubai, and across Europe — the bankers, lawyers, developers, and specialists who can move a matter when it counts.
