Acquisition finance
The current economic climate has made finding finance for
acquisitions challenging. Financiers are becoming more cautious in
their lending and this is reflected in increasingly demanding
covenant requirements and more sophisticated inter-creditor
arrangements. However, some potential targets have also become
available on very attractive terms which is an opportunity for
those borrowers who can overcome these financing requirements.
Our service
Our acquisition finance team has extensive experience of
advising on the funding of corporate acquisitions. We have advised
banks and other finance houses on numerous financings as well as
borrowers who wish to obtain funds from them. With this experience
and insight, we are able to identify, and provide you with
commercially realistic and cost effective solutions, whether you
are a borrower or lender.
Our whole team has M&A expertise,
so we can also undertake due diligence and review your acquisition
documents. We also have access to other specialists, for example in
tax, pensions
and employment, for the review of
warranties and indemnities and negotiation of service
agreements.
