Mezzanine capital

We have an innovative range of mezzanine capital applications to meet the differing financing needs of small and medium-sized Romanian businesses.

Mezzanine capital is often an ideal financing option in situations where access to bank debt is limited, perhaps owing to a lack of tangible assets or an unduly conservative assessment of a company’s debt-bearing capacity.

Mezzanine capital is also advantageous where the shareholder dilution implied by raising additional equity capital is unattractive. Mezzanine capital generally enhances shareholder returns by providing additional leverage.

We frequently provide mezzanine capital to assist private equity investors and management teams to acquire Romanian businesses.

The use of mezzanine capital for these ‘buyout’ transactions is the most conventional use of mezzanine capital. Go thou our website to see who we have supported.

Mezzanine capital is used to fund acquisitions in corporate build-up situations. It is used to finance fixed asset additions, the development of new products or moves into new markets. It can also serve as bridge financing before a stock market flotation.

An important application of mezzanine capital is to facilitate the reorganisation of shareholdings in a business, for example where one shareholder has the opportunity to acquire shares from a fellow shareholder. It is also possible to leverage a business with mezzanine capital to provide liquidity for existing shareholders.
