Raising Capital
Funding Made Simple
Whether you need funding for growth, acquisition, management buy-out (MBO), or to buy out a shareholder, our expertise and experience allow us to advise you on debt, private equity, and public capital markets.
- Transaction or Growth-Based Funding: financing for an acquisition, MBO, capital investment, or increasing working capital
- Start-ups and early-stage businesses may also require funding to kickstart operations.
- Cash Out: the release of equity, external private equity investment allows one or more shareholders to realise some of their shareholding in cash while retaining a stake, which can contribute to the required finance for an acquisition or fund growth.
- Refinancing: As existing financing arrangements mature, refinancing offers an opportunity for improved terms or structure that better suits current needs.
Our team can advise on accessing, structuring, and negotiating financing options best suited to our clients.Options include private equity, venture capital, high net worth individuals, banks, asset-based lenders, and crowdfunding.
