Debt Financing

There are a variety of reasons and occasions for which professional financing advice can be crucial to success: from the financing of an acquisition, a change in shareholder structure, a significant investment, the refinancing of existing credit lines, a recapitalization of the liabilities side, to the optimization or expansion of operational financing. We offer optimal support in structuring, tendering and negotiating complex financing packages by independently examining the possible instruments and strategies. We accompany our clients throughout the entire course of a transaction, from preparation to loan approval or disbursement. A holistic approach to consulting is our benchmark for creating the best possible financing solutions in a competitive environment and thus real added Value.

Even in complex and difficult financial situations, we raise capital for our clients from banks, debt funds or via subordinated debt instruments. Our strength is our in-depth understanding and management of the expectations of the various stakeholders (partners, management, major shareholders, subordinated capital providers, customers, suppliers, employees). And we know how to balance and moderate their interests and those of other stakeholders.
