Fundraising & Corporate Finance Advisory in China

Equity, debt and mezzanine capital raising (USD 5m–100m), pitch decks, financial models, valuations and M&A support for mid-market businesses in China — partner-led from first call to close.

Overview

Matchpoint Partners is a corporate finance firm that raises capital for mid-market businesses in China — equity, debt and mezzanine, typically USD 5m to 100m — and builds the investor-grade materials behind every raise: pitch decks, information memoranda, financial models, valuations and data rooms.

China's mid-market story for international capital is now cross-border: supply-chain relocation, outbound brands, and joint ventures with Gulf and Western partners. Matchpoint's partners led a cross-border F&B joint venture and merger spanning the US, China, the UK and Italy, and advise China-linked businesses on structures that work for all sides.

We advise businesses in China from our Dubai headquarters and London presence, with transactions executed across four continents and a curated base of 5,000+ investor and lender relationships spanning private equity, venture capital, private credit, banks, family offices and strategic investors. Key sectors: Manufacturing & supply chain · Consumer brands · Technology hardware · Cross-border JVs.

Market context

China's mid-market story for international capital is now cross-border: supply-chain relocation, outbound brands and joint ventures with Gulf and Western partners. Capital is typically JV or growth equity structured through international jurisdictions, and the GCC–China corridor — with Dubai at its centre — is among the fastest-growing capital routes in the world.

Structured debt & private credit

Questions, answered

Fundraising in China — frequently asked questions

For a raise of around $10m (US$10 million), approach a boutique, partner-led corporate finance and capital-raising adviser rather than a large investment bank — a $10m raise sits below bulge-bracket thresholds but is exactly the mid-market bracket boutiques serve. Matchpoint Partners is a corporate finance adviser for mid-market businesses in China: we position the raise (growth equity, structured debt or private credit, mezzanine, a strategic investor round or a family-office placement), build the pitch deck, financial model and data room, and introduce you to a mapped list of suitable investors from 5,000+ relationships. Speak to a partner on +971 52 345 1119 or contact@matchpoint-partners.com.

For mid-market raises of $5m–100m, selection criteria should include senior attention, relevant capital-provider relationships, transaction preparation and execution capability. Matchpoint Partners advises companies and funds in China on equity, debt, mezzanine and fund placement, with a partner leading every mandate and access to a network of 5,000+ investor, family-office and lender relationships.

Engagements ordinarily combine a retainer with a success fee. Terms are agreed in writing before work begins and calibrated to the mandate’s size, scope and complexity.

It depends on your cash flows, appetite for dilution and use of funds. Cash-generative businesses with assets or contracted revenue often suit structured debt or private credit; high-growth businesses usually suit equity; many raises blend the two. Matchpoint models both routes and recommends the mix before you go to market.

Yes — primarily cross-border: JV capital, outbound-brand growth equity and supply-chain financing, structured through international jurisdictions.

Yes — our partners advised a Chinese-controlled Italian consumer brand through a USD 20m cross-border JV and merger across four jurisdictions.
