Bankers on the GT Securities platform provide buy-side advisory services for corporate buyers and private equity firms, and family offices seeking to grow and/or build shareholder value via acquisition.
Our experienced investment banking professionals can navigate you through the acquisition process, from finding the right company to securing financing throughout the capital stack, and finally through closing and business integration.
Our bankers work closely with clients to formulate a customized acquisition strategy that reflects the client’s specific objectives, including:
- Defining the acquisition strategy and acquisition target criteria, in terms of industry, synergies, and size
- Identifying acquisition targets that fit the desired growth strategy and capital availability (equity capital, seller/debt financing, etc.)
- Providing financial advisory services as the accretive value to a potential transaction, which is unique and different for operating middle market companies, strategic buyers, joint ventures, and buy-side investment firms
- Managing the initial contact, qualification, and due diligence process with viable, identified targets
- Coordinating with capital providers (debt, equity, and seller-based) to structure a financeable deal, and to streamline and accelerate their due diligence
- Managing and driving the acquisition process, including deal terms, closing, and business integration is of particular importance to middle-market companies that have not completed a buy-side transaction previously
A GT Securities buy-side investment banking professional devotes considerable time, energy, and financial advisory expertise to identify the right target company and assess transaction opportunities, initiate contact with targets, and negotiate the deal terms.
Our customized methodology ensures that clients experience a focused and efficient sale or acquisition process and achieve an optimal transaction arrangement.
