Public management consulting, led by people who have run public institutions
lill Advisory advises international organisations, governments and public financial institutions on strategy, organisation, finance and leadership.
Who we are
For more than 25 years, our experts have helped public institutions make decisions that last: national strategies, new institutions and instruments that foster resilience and economic growth.
lill Advisory is a boutique consultancy and part of lill Group, founded in 2017 and based in Wolfach in Germany’s Black Forest. We bring together a small team of senior experts with leadership experience in export credit agencies, development banks, ministries, commercial banks, insurers and universities.
We work where policy, finance and organisation meet. That is why clients come to us for questions where one discipline alone is not enough, from the mandate of a new EXIM bank to the steering of a national agency.
What sets us apart
Senior experts only
The experts you meet at the start do the work. There is no hand-over to junior staff.
Practitioners
Our team includes people who have led export credit agencies and the Berne Union, alongside bankers, insurers and academics.
Evidence-based
We combine practical experience with peer benchmarks, data and published research.
Independent
We are not tied to any product, institution or government. Our advice serves our client’s mandate.
How we work
Every engagement is built around the client’s question and follows four steps, from first analysis to implementation.
Diagnose
We assess the institution against its mandate and its peers, and agree the questions that matter.
Design
We develop options for strategy, organisation, instruments and governance, each with its trade-offs.
Deliver
We support implementation: processes, governance, instruments, partnerships and change.
Build capability
We train leaders and teams so the institution carries the work forward.
Part of lill Group
lill Advisory belongs to lill Group, which has advised public institutions since 2017. Our experts carry that track record into every engagement.
The lill Institute for Public Value
The lill Institute is an independent, not-for-profit research institute. Several of our experts are fellows there. Its research is independent of our consulting work and openly available to all.
