Capital Structure Advisory — frequently asked questions

Advice on the mix of equity, debt and hybrid instruments a company should use, designed to minimise cost of capital while keeping control, covenant and risk within acceptable limits.

By modelling the after-tax cost and dilution of each option against the company’s cash flows and objectives, and recommending the blend that funds the plan on the best terms.

Two connected things: value-creation strategy and transformation (sharpening the equity story, operating and margin improvement, transaction readiness), and the hands-on execution behind a raise or restructuring — financial modelling (three-statement, DCF, LBO, project finance, 13-week cash flow), investor documentation (information memorandum, pitch deck, business plan, data room), fundraising support (strategy, investor mapping, outreach, term-sheet and cap-table advisory) and turnaround support (valuation, due-diligence prep, IBR, lender packs).

Yes. These services are delivered on a monthly retainer or per deliverable, so a company that needs strategy input, a model, an IM or a full fundraising process can bring in senior corporate finance capability without hiring a team.

Founders, promoters, developers and management teams that need capital and need the strategy, modelling, documentation and process done to an institutional standard — including businesses under time or liquidity pressure.

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.

Most mandates reach a first term sheet within 30 days, depending on diligence readiness and structure; closing follows once terms are agreed.

A short, confidential scoping call and NDA; we structure the requirement and prepare materials, then run a competitive process across our 5,000+ investor and lender relationships, and negotiate to close — with a partner leading at every step.
