Why STM Corporate Group
Advice from people who have done the work themselves
Expanding a company into a new country, moving a family across borders, opening the right banking relationships or introducing AI into a business that already runs well: each is a practical project with paperwork, counterparties and deadlines. We have carried out each of them ourselves, repeatedly, in several countries.
STM Corporate Group is a corporate advisory firm in Austin, Texas. We work with owner-managed companies, mid-market firms and the people behind them. Our advice is operational rather than theoretical: what needs to be in place, in which order, with which documents, and who signs.
We work with licensed partners wherever a matter calls for one, including attorneys, accountants, immigration counsel and regulated financial institutions. We are transparent about what we do and do not do, and we put it in writing before an engagement starts.
- A dedicated relationship manager for every client
- Fixed fees agreed in writing before work starts
- Documentation a bank, a counterparty or an auditor can follow
Our advisory services
Four service lines, one way of working
Whether you are entering a new market, relocating your life and business, establishing banking relationships or putting AI to work inside your company, the engagement follows the same pattern: a clear scope, a named contact and a plan you can act on.
Relocation Support
Practical support for founders and families moving between countries: visas and business or investment migration routes in many countries, schooling, housing, personal security and continuity planning with licensed local counsel.

How we work
Clear scope, fixed fee, named contact
Every engagement starts with a free consultation. We listen to what you are planning, ask the questions a bank or a regulator would ask later, and tell you plainly whether we can help. If we can, you receive a written scope with a fixed fee before any work begins.
From there a dedicated relationship manager coordinates the work, brings in licensed partners where a matter requires them, and keeps the documentation in order so that every step can be evidenced afterwards.
CompliantWe work within the rules of every jurisdiction involved and say so in writing.
TransparentFixed fees, written scopes and no hidden partners or commissions.
OperationalAdvice you can act on the next morning, not a slide deck.
