Management teams looking for debt funding

Having the right debt funding is critical for a business’ success. An inappropriate structure can suffocate a business or worse. Our debt advisory team works with clients to ensure they have a debt structure that is suitable to their business and strategy.

Our Debt Advisory team works with clients to help them assess their funding needs and implement the right funding structure. We also work with banks helping them to assess funding requests, and can provide insight from this perspective.

We work with clients to:

• Review their strategic plans and funding needs
• Help build robust financial models
• Advise on appropriate debt structures and identify suitable providers
• Provide insight on what the debt market is offering
• Secure new debt facilities
• Negotiate covenants and other terms with debt providers
• Restructure existing facilities

Debt funding is typically part of a wider strategic project and our team frequently works alongside Corporate Finance and Tax colleagues delivering an integrated service.

We have expertise across:

• Banking facilities, sole bank and bilateral facilities
• Structured finance
• Invoice discounting and stock financing
• Asset based lending
• Alternative lenders and challenger banks
• Government support loan schemes
• Venture debt providers

We work with:

• Ambitious businesses looking to grow organically or through acquisition
• Management buy-out teams and Employee Ownership Trusts
• Businesses that are looking for an alternative banking facility or relationship
• Businesses that find their current facilities are not meeting their needs

Some businesses may be seeking a more aggressive growth strategy through accessing equity capital. For more information on this visit our private equity funding page.
