You have successfully headed up and developed your company over many years. You are now faced with the necessity of having to find a successor in the immediate future. A successor from within the family is not an option. Or as an entrepreneur you are faced with the situation where one or several shareholders wish to leave the company for reasons of age, strategic reasons or simply because they have conflicting opinions on how the company should be run.
 
In this difficult situation we offer solutions whereby

• The closely-held structure of your company remains intact


• Your company can continue to operate independently in the market


• You have the opportunity to participate in the future success of the company through financial participation.

 

Management-Buy-Out / Management-Buy-In
 
These acquisition models predicate the use of experienced managers  working together with financial investors in an "acquisiton company" to purchase their current enterprises.
 
In the case of a Management-Buy-Out (MBO) some of the managers already run the business; in the case of a Management-Buy-In (MBI) the managers have no previous experience of the company.
 
We offer a comprehensive service for MBO/MBI projects:

• Elaborating acquisition concepts


• Providing equity


• Functioning as lead investor, i.e. finding co-investors and creditors


• Selecting a suitable management team (e.g. from our own network)


• Cooperation with consultants specialised in tax and contractual law

Due to the complex nature of MBO/MBI projects this comprehensive expertise is indispensable and is offered to you unrestrictedly as part of our service package.
