Debt advisory

We cover a broad spectrum of services from analyzing debt and capital structure options and preparing proposals, through to negotiating and implementing financing solutions.

Whether you’re raising new debt or refinancing or restructuring existing debt, we work closely with management, lenders and other key stakeholders to thoroughly prepare for the re(financing) process. We ensure that you deliver a robust proposition to potential lenders, supported by tested and appropriate financial assumptions.

New loan facilities and refinancing:

  • Determine the most appropriate debt structure for the business
  • This includes forming a view on the best pricing that is likely to be achievable and then running a competitive process with a group of selected lenders to achieve these targeted loan terms.
  • Prepare a Financing memorandum including the financial model
  • Negotiate final terms with the selected lender including negotiation of the documentation, covenants and terms
  • Manage the process all the way through to completion.

Debt restructuring

Achieving an optimal capital structure can be a challenge when a company is facing disruption to its operations and profitability. Legacy obligations may require refinancing or rescheduling, historically passive stakeholders may become activist and traditional debt structures may become unachievable temporary or permanently.

In these situations, we assist clients by thinking creatively about their options and interacting with all relevant stakeholders to build consensus around a restructuring solution that seeks to help maximize value for all stakeholders. Every situation is unique and we structure bespoke solutions to address the requirements of clients and the applicable circumstances.

More specifically:

  • We identify the various options for reshaping your debt and capital structure and the execution risks of pursuing each option, so that you can make an informed decision on which proposals to present to lenders, equity providers and other stakeholders.
  • Act as your Financial Advisor to negotiate with stakeholders (documentations, covenants and terms), build consensus and obtain agreement to the proposals and then execute the transaction.
  • Assist in raising new debt, equity or hybrid capital from local and international investors.
