The general characteristics are outlined below:

The placement agent is a full service global investment bank serving large and middle market companies throughout Europe, Africa, Latin America and East Asia.

The placement agent advises clients across all private market sectors (specialty focuses on agriculture, infrastructure, logistics, transportation, mining, manufacturing, oil & gas, consumer, healthcare and financials) seeking to raise $10m – 200m+ in equity, convertible and/or debt capital. Equity offerings typically contemplate an exit through IPO or private sale in years 5 – 7 and focus on the following investment segments:

Venture:Management teams with no current operating entities or assets seek capital based on their proprietary market access and/or knowledge

Growth:Management teams of current operating entities and/or assets seek capital to grow their business

Recapitalization: Part and/or whole owners seek to sell their interests and/or shareholdings of current operating entities and/or assets

Distressed:Owners of current operating entities or assets facing

excessive leverage raise equity capital to extinguish unmanageable debt

Generally, pricing guidance is 8-12% for senior debt, 12 – 16% for subordinate debt  and 17-22% for equity. Debt pays current interest. Equity makes no current payments and the return is back ended to 7 – 10 years after investment when investor sells to another investor or back to management. Terms generally include forms of initial control regardless of economic ownership that are relieved as management meets specified milestones.

A typical equity raise requires 4 – 6 months (the time begins to run after you contract with the Fund).

The placement agent charges both advisory fees (upfront fee) that range between $30,000 – 50,000 (paid in two instalments) and success fees (1,2% for debt; 4,5% for equity) paid on funding.
