What is private equity?
Private equity is a way of financing your business, usually in the form of buy out or buy in, with the intention of helping it to grow.
It might seem a daunting option to give up control of your business but it can be the best option if you:
- Are looking for funding and expertise to take your business to the next stage of growth
- Feel you’ve taken the business as far as you can
- Are considering retirement
How can we help raise private equity for your business?
We provide a truly independent service, helping you to identify the right private equity partners, tailored to you and your business needs.
We take our time to understand the objectives of the shareholders and the fundamentals of the business, and its growth plans, before tailoring a reach-out process to a shortlist created from our over 100 private equity relationships.
Using our experience and expertise, we will identify the right partner, assist in preparing your business to raise private equity money (including preparing a fully integrated 3 statements financial model, if required), and manage the negotiation and due diligence process to ensure the terms of any deal are maximised.
Additional business funding services
Our Business Funding and Debt Advisory team can also assist in raising debt to go alongside any private equity funding from our network of over 100 relationships with high street banks, independent lenders, and alternative debt funds.
If you’re not sure whether your business is ‘investment ready’ or are uncertain as to the type of investment you require for your business, our team are also on hand to help you prepare.
Where required we can also call upon our expert colleagues within the wider accounting firm to provide support on matters such as tax advice, company structures, and shareholder financial planning to ensure that we support you fully throughout the fundraising process.
