Areas of expertise

Strategic advisory

We provide strategic and tactical advice tailored to our client’s requirements in order to address key issues throughout the entire entrepreneurial cycle − from a company’s establishment and expansion to its sale. We review our clients’ business models and their strategic alternatives, identify opportunities to enhance shareholder value, and deliver analytical, industry and structure-related expertise in special situations.

Buy-side M&A

When advising clients on the acquisition of a company or a set of assets, we search for, identify and evaluate potential acquisition targets. We provide valuation analyses and advice on the timing, structure, financing and pricing of an acquisition, as well as offering support with negotiating and closing the transaction. As a buy-side advisor, we originate deals for our clients or guide them through structured sales processes.

Sell-side M&A

We support clients with their decision to sell a company or certain assets in both strategic and distressed situations. We evaluate the client’s strategic options with respect to the sale, and define and manage the sales process, including the preparation of sales materials. Our industry and market know-how enable us to identify suitable investors and assist our clients in negotiating and closing the transaction.

Leveraged transactions

By combining our M&A expertise with our knowledge of capital structure decisions, we navigate our clients through leveraged buy-outs (LBOs), management buy-outs (MBOs), management buy-ins (MBIs) and similar transactions.

Business valuations

We offer an unbiased perspective on investment projects, companies and third-party transactions in the shape of business valuations and fairness opinions.

VCP offers its expertise across the entire spectrum of capital structure decisions, as well as its access to a wide-ranging international network of investors. In our role as an independent advisor, this means we can provide comprehensive support on all aspects of capital structure optimisation, equity and debt market positioning and issuance, as well as investor communications strategies.

We maintain long-standing business relations with financial institutions, corporate investors, financial sponsors, family offices and fund advisors looking for investment opportunities. By combining these resources with our expertise in the careful selection, initiation and implementation of all the related measures, we offer our clients access to a broad range of funding choices with a view to optimising transaction value and financing costs.

 

Areas of expertise

Capital structure

Finding the ideal financing mix and developing tailored holding and capital structures for our clients are key elements of our capital advisory services. We also provide advice to companies, creditors, investors and other stakeholders on all types of liability-driven capital structure challenges, including turnaround, distressed and bankruptcy situations.

Equity capital

Working independently of banks, we deliver advice on all aspects of raising equity capital, and cooperate closely with our clients to develop an appropriate equity story and investor communication strategy.

Debt capital

Our team advises clients on alternatives for existing debt as well as new debt issuance, including bank debt, corporate bonds and similar instruments.

Mezzanine capital

We support clients in structuring and issuing mezzanine and subordinated debt instruments, as well as convertible and other equity-linked securities.

Acquisition finance

In connection with buy-side mandates, we give our clients advice on sourcing, structuring and executing all forms of acquisition financing.
