Independent Fiduciary Oversight

Quell gives owners independent financial control, investment intelligence and senior oversight across businesses and capital.

We build the reporting, monitoring and governance systems that keep you informed, identify what requires attention, and provide independent senior judgment when intervention is needed.

WHAT WE DO

Three capabilities.One independent view.

Quell gives owners reliable business information, independent investment judgment and senior leadership when action is required — through one continuing owner-side relationship.

01 / Oversight

Fiduciary Oversight

Independent senior representation, including board and executive responsibility where required.

Quell can monitor management, represent the owner at board level, or take direct responsibility for running the company. The mandate defines the role, authority and accountability. For foreign principals with assets in Poland, this can include local representation and coordination across the company's legal, financial and operating ecosystem.

Scope

  • Board-level oversight, director and interim executive appointments
  • Management monitoring, direct management and transition leadership
  • Governance design and maintenance
  • Review of advisors and service providers
  • Owner reporting on a fixed cadence
  • Oversight of major projects and transactions
  • Local representation in Poland
  • Escalation and intervention

Outcome

The owner retains a clear line of sight into the asset and direct access to senior judgment, with Quell able to assume responsibility when the mandate requires it.

02 / Control

Financial Control

Reliable financial information on a fixed monthly cadence.

We build the reporting, forecast, cash view and control framework around the operating business, then keep it running to an agreed timetable. Where the mandate calls for executive responsibility, Quell can act as a fractional or interim CFO.

Scope

  • Owner and board reporting
  • Fractional and interim CFO mandates
  • Cash forecasting, budgets and forecasts
  • KPI and variance analysis
  • Financial controls and management packs
  • Treasury and financing oversight
  • Exception and risk monitoring

Outcome

By the seventh business day of each month, the owner receives a report on the previous month: what happened, why it happened, how cash moved, what is off plan and what requires a decision.

03 / Intelligence

Investment Intelligence

Fund and manager research built for investment decisions.

Quell builds and maintains the research process behind manager and fund selection. We screen the market, examine the people, process, portfolio, performance, terms and risks behind each strategy, assess its place in the wider portfolio, and turn the work into clear investment-committee materials. After an allocation is made, we continue to test whether the original case still holds.

Scope

  • Fund-universe design and screening
  • Manager research and due diligence
  • Strategy, terms and portfolio comparison
  • Portfolio exposure and risk analysis
  • Investment-committee papers and decision support
  • Ongoing monitoring and reassessment

Outcome

Investment teams gain a rigorous, continuously updated evidence base for manager selection, portfolio review and investment-committee decisions.

HOW WE WORK

Build. Run. Oversee.

Most engagements begin with a defined situation: an acquisition, a market entry, a reporting gap, a restructuring, or an established operation that needs a stronger owner-level view. The first conversation defines the outcome that matters to the owner.

01

Build

We understand the company and the mandate, connect the data, assess existing providers and establish the reporting, forecast, cash view, controls and governance map. A typical Build phase is structured around the first ninety days.

02

Run

The system operates to a fixed cadence and date. We coordinate inputs, review outputs, track variances and changes, and surface exceptions. The owner receives the same decision-useful view every cycle.

03

Oversee

Quell holds a standing owner-side role. We monitor management and providers, prepare decisions and represent the principal locally. Where the mandate requires it, we take board or executive responsibility for the company.

SELECTED EXPERIENCE

Experience across businesses, boards and capital

01

Owner oversight in Poland

For a foreign entrepreneur with revenue-generating operations in Poland, Quell strengthened the governance structure, took a senior coordinating role and built owner reporting across performance, cash deployment and operating priorities. The relationship continues.

02

Financial control at scale

Michał served as Board Advisor for Finance and acting interim CFO to a technology services business with approximately PLN 200 million in annual revenue. The role covered supervisory reporting, forecasting and performance analysis for shareholders and boards.

03

Investment intelligence in practice

Quell provides the manager research, fund analysis and investment-committee materials that support Smart Global Alpha, a live multi-manager strategy implemented through Logistable Limited. The work covers defining and screening the fund universe, assessing managers and portfolio fit, documenting the case for each allocation, and monitoring whether that case continues to hold. Quell's contribution helped take the strategy from concept to live implementation and now supports its continuing development.

WHO WE WORK WITH

Businesses, entrepreneurs and investment teams

01

Companies entering or operating in Poland

Entrepreneurs, family offices and investors who own, are acquiring or are establishing a business in Poland and need trusted senior oversight, local representation or direct management.

02

Owner-entrepreneurs

Principals who have delegated day-to-day responsibility and want a reliable independent view of performance, cash, risk and governance.

03

Investment teams

Chief investment officers and investment teams at family offices, multi-manager funds and asset-management firms seeking additional depth in fund and manager research, portfolio analysis or investment-committee preparation.

Quell takes a limited number of mandates, designed for continuity and direct senior attention.

WHY QUELL

Built around the owner's decisions

Management information, specialist advice and regular reporting each contribute valuable insight. Quell brings them together into one current, independent view for the owner.

03

One view across disciplines

Finance, investment, governance and execution are considered together because owner-level decisions often cut across professional disciplines.

02

Senior judgment throughout

The same senior perspective shapes the system, reviews the output and remains available when an exception becomes a decision.

01

Aligned with the owner

We receive no commissions or referral fees from law firms, accountants, managers or other service providers. Our economic relationship is with the client.

Michał Karol Ejdys

Founder and Principal

Financial, investment and operating decisions are strongest when considered together.

Quell connects analysis with responsibility for what happens next.

That combination reflects Michał Ejdys's own work: investment management, board advisory, interim CFO assignments and, today, board and executive responsibility.

Michał is directly accountable for every Quell mandate. Delivery runs through documented research, reporting and monitoring systems. AI extends the range and frequency of analysis; evidence, judgments and decisions remain visible from one cycle to the next.
