Companies and their stakeholders are increasingly seeking flexible solutions to meet their capital needs, which often sit outside traditional verticals, in between senior debt and private equity.
Responding to this demand, and wider market forces, we’ve seen the emergence of a group of financial investors offering ‘capital solutions’ which straddle debt, equity, and hybrid capital. These investors have a mandate that allows them to be more creative and dynamic about the ways in which they source, diligence and execute investments across different market environments, typically utilising bespoke structures, technology and instruments that are tailored to the specific situation at hand.
