One partner whom we work closely with,
explains their role in the success of your company this way...
The investment bank that helps
you grow your company...
Our goal is to put your company on a fast
track and to help you grow your company by $50 million to $150
million in two to five years.
To accomplish this, our expert management team
acts as your personal advisor in raising the capital to grow
your company. This team:
- Creates the legal, accounting and capital
structures necessary for you to reach your company goals.
- Advises you on the most appropriate means
to raise capital.
- Assists you in the capital raising
process.
- Advises management and shareholders in
designing growth strategies.
- Helps shareholders achieve "liquidity."
How we differ from commercial banks Commercial
banks are primarily asset-based lenders with limited involvement
in your company beyond securing the amount of a loan, usually on
a collateral backed basis..
We on the other hand, typically take an equity
position in your company, sit on your Board and provide expert
financial advice. As a result, we are intimately involved with
your success.
How we secure capital when you can't
All too often, entrepreneurs believe all
that's required to raise capital is to send a solid business
plan to a venture capitalist. This rarely happens.
In today's risky financial climate, venture
capitalists often depend on investment banks to present
structured deals that minimize risk.
For example, we will help structure your deal,
determine the appropriate capital structure alternatives and
take your structured deal to selected financial sources, with
whom we have developed long term relationships.
Achieving this requires hard work and a clear
vision. |
