Equity
Financing
Each year UK private equity firms provide
several billions of pounds to form, develop and reshape around
1,600 ambitious UK / European companies with high growth prospects.
Equity capital or financing is money raised by a business in
exchange for a share of ownership in the company. Ownership
is represented by owning shares of stock outright or having
the right to convert other financial instruments into stock
of that private company. Two key sources of equity capital for
new and emerging businesses are angel investors and venture
capital firms.
Private equity makes managers into owners, giving them the freedom,
focus and finance to enable them to revitalise their companies
and take them onto their next phase of growth. Private equity
is committed, long-term and risk sharing. It provides companies
with personal experience and a stable financial base on which
to make strategic decisions.
Our clients have substantial growth aspirations, and use our
skills where they achieve greatest value – helping identify
and exploit new opportunities and achieve controlled growth.
