Corporate finance and investment structuring

Our approach

We assist companies and investors in corporate finance transactions by identifying the most appropriate legal and fiscal structure, to be achieved through the issuance of equity, debt, hybrid financial instruments or mezzanine financing. Our professionals also provide assistance in recapitalization transactions and other forms of asset enhancement, as well as in the establishment and development of investment funds and investment clubs for the pursuit of specific investments.
