About the Firm
Institutional experience.
Independent perspective.
Four Bridges was founded on the belief that mid-market businesses deserve the same quality of capital advisory that large institutions reserve for large clients.
Hemant Hemnani
Founder & Executive Director
The Founder
A career defined by India's most consequential capital market transactions.
Hemant Hemnani has spent his career at the intersection of capital and business — advising companies on how to raise it, structure it, and deploy it effectively.
His institutional grounding came from Enam Securities, where he worked as an investment banker through some of India's most significant capital market activity. Enam was not merely a firm — it was a standard. Known for its independence, analytical rigour, and client-first orientation, it shaped a generation of Indian investment banking. When Enam was acquired by Axis Capital, Hemant served as Executive Director, carrying those principles through the transition.
He eventually made the decision to build something of his own — a platform with a singular purpose: to bring institutional-grade advisory to businesses that large banks structurally cannot serve well. The clients Four Bridges works with are too sophisticated for generalist advice and too entrepreneurial for institutional bureaucracy.
Our Approach
Advisory before transaction. Relationship before mandate.
We do not begin with a product and look for a fit. We begin with your business — its structure, its capital needs, its growth trajectory — and work backward to the right solution.
This means we study your financials before we advise. We understand your shareholder structure before we discuss an exit. We map your debt obligations before we recommend restructuring.
It also means we are selective. We take on engagements where we believe we can create meaningful value — and we decline those where we cannot.
How We're Different
Not affiliated with any bank, lender, or investor. Our advice is not shaped by product targets or distribution mandates.
You work with Hemant directly. The person who understands your business is the person managing your transaction.
Every engagement follows a defined process. Clients know what to expect and what is expected of them.
Who We Serve
Businesses at a point of strategic consequence.
Our clients are promoters, founders, and senior principals at growth-stage or established small-to-mid-sized enterprises. They are navigating a material decision: raising capital, reorganizing debt, or evaluating a transaction that will define the next phase of the business.
What distinguishes them is not their size, but their seriousness. They bring organized financials, aligned stakeholders, and a clear objective. They engage Four Bridges when they need more than a banker — when they need a partner who will tell them what the transaction actually looks like.
