Buying A Company with Corporate Finance [MBO]

When buying a company as a management buyout candidate (MBO) you will need advice to get the structure and investment right for you and your team.

It is also essential in an MBO that you have access to the right Funders and that you present the opportunity in a format that investors are used to seeing MBO opportunities presented.

The vendor's advisor will be aiming for the maximum possible price for the vendor and investors to maximise their funds return for their investors. It is your advisor's job to manage these factors to ensure that you receive the maximum possible equity stake in your MBO, everyone else in the process will be using seasoned and top drawer professionals, you need someone with the experience and skills to match them.

Buying a company whether it is through MBO (management buyout) or VIMBO (vendor-initiated management buyout) requires excellent advice at key stages throughout the process, control of information and detailed financial modelling as well as contacts with the best investors for you in the market.
