Corporate Finance

Corporate finance should not be confused with raising money for the sole purpose of achieving a business objective. The principle of corporate finance is more about the use of the business transaction aimed at buying, selling or developing a business in accordance with the stakeholder's or entrepreneur's objectives.

Such transactions or 'deals' tend to revolve around the need for business to be competitive, to plan for succession, an exit route for the owner or the individual entrepreneur's aspirations.

Our corporate finance work within this area, whether for established or ad hoc clients, covers:

• Business sales, acquisitions and disposals
• Management buy-outs/buy-ins
• Exit strategies
• Succession planning
• Restructure and re-financing
• Project feasibility study of projects
• Business plan preparation
• Company purchase of own shares
• Business valuations
• Raising finance
• Growth strategies
• Grooming businesses for sale
• Tax reviews and planning
• Due diligence
• Deal structuring
• Negotiations and discussions with banks and solicitors

We have well-established links with other professionals with whom we work on corporate finance matters.
