M&A ADVISORY

To achieve full success, any M&A transaction – whether global in scope or strategic acquisition of a local enterprise - requires careful planning and expertise across the board, ranging from tax-efficient structuring to deep understanding of the legal and regulatory environment. Our focused approach to deal structuring encompasses all fiscal, regulatory, and commercial considerations to be able to recommend the most optimal structure for the transaction.

Need to raise funds for growth, expansion, a new product or venture, or restructuring? Our fundraising strategy helps clients identify their capital raising needs over a period, outlining various available options to raise the required funds, and assisting them in their pursuit to achieve a balance between cost and control.

The capital markets are increasingly complex, and rapidly changing. Fluid markets lead to constantly fluctuating institutional appetite, product availability and pricing, making it difficult for companies to keep abreast of developments in a dynamic capital market.

We are experienced in a wide range of capital raising transactions. From traditional debt and equity growth financing to more complex restructuring and recapitalization transactions. We are able to provide you with access to international financing sources through our network and help you structure and arrange highly customized financial solutions.
