2 solutions depending on your needs
Mezzanine financing customized to your needs
Mezzanine financing offers repayment terms tailored to your business reality. It gives you the freedom to structure the loan according to your cash inflows to protect your working capital. It is an ideal option for financing the goodwill component of the transaction. In addition, it is an alternative that can bridge the gap between other sources of financing (senior debt, vendor take-back, equity) to get the project moving forward.
Cash flow financing for business acquisition projects
The company targeted in the transaction has demonstrated a consistent track record of positive and strong cash flow. This solution allows you to raise sufficient capital to complete the transaction with stable terms and conditions that provide peace of mind.
