Corporate Finance Advisory

We deliver the following skill sets:

• Private Market M&A Advisory. We advise corporations, entrepreneurs and family businesses on the sale and purchase of unquoted businesses. We specialise in assembling complex and challenging structures, such as acquisition roll-ups and multi-part value enhancement programs.
  We have no specific sector focus. The Partnership has considerable expertise in capital goods/engineering, technology, telecoms, mining, support services.
  The Lead Partners on private M&A are Peter O'Kane and Hakan Winter.
• Public Market M&A Advisory. We specialise in UK Public Market M&A, both acquisitions and bid defence. We are sector agnostic. This is a highly complex area both in tactical and regulatory terms. Effective UK Public M&A Advisory which is truly independent is a rare service. The Lead Partner is David Anderson.
• Equity Capital Markets. We provide wholly independent advice to corporations and business owners on how to design Equity Capital fundings, what markets to target/list on, how to select the optimal group of banks to place the stock and how to ensure they are monitored and managed through the offering/IPO process, so that it is a success. The Lead Partners are David Charters and Mark Beilby.
• Structured Finance. We specialise in two distinct areas.
  One is Offset Finance, delivering highly attractive new investment opportunities to companies in a range of Asian, Middle East, European and African countries. We operate a J.V. with leading market expert Blenheim Capital Partners. The Lead Partners are David Charters and Peter O'Kane.
  The second area is Project Finance, mainly for alternative energy projects (wind, waste-to-energy, bio-mass) but we will also look at traditional large-scale fossil fuel projects and selected infrastructure projects. The Lead Partners are Andrew Bride and Pradeep Mathur.
