Business Disposals
FC acts exclusively as retained advisor and project manager. We can help you find the right purchaser for your business, agree the best deal and drive the process through to completion.
Acquisition Search and Support
FC has access to sophisticated corporate research tools and to a national and international network of corporate finance intermediaries. We will find the most suitable acquisition target for you, make the approach and negotiate the deal.
Venture Capital and Acquisition Finance
FC has many years experience of raising finance to help our clients fund business development, acquisitions, buyouts and shareholder reorganisations.
Business Turnaround and Rescue
FC is not an insolvency practitioner but we bring an independent and truly objective approach to helping businesses that are struggling or in danger of becoming insolvent.
Specialist Business Finance
Private investor capital, leasing and hire purchase, invoice finance, specialist stock finance, trade discounting and letters of credit, government investment, loans and loan guarantee schemes are additional sources of finance that FC can assist with.
Finance and commercial support for property development and investment
We specialise in raising structured debt packages for property development and investment, including commercial, residential and hotels. When market conditions allow, the funding solution may include high loan-to-value-ratios and/or interest-only loan facilities in situations where returns and cash flow can be shown to support such financing.
Business Partnerships and Start Ups
Unlike many of our competitors, FC is keen to be involved in exceptionally high-quality business start-ups, even though there may initially be insufficient funds to reward us by payment of fees. In some cases we can instead join the new business as a partner and work with our new colleagues to help establish the business, prepare business plans, negotiate key commercial arrangements and introduce financial controls.
Financial and Strategic Advice
Our everyday work brings us into contact with hundreds of different businesses and requires us to analyse how they work and how they generate cash and profits. These analytical skills, combined with our corporate finance expertise, enable us to assess financial performance and consider strategic options in an informed manner. We also have specialist consultancy divisions for the passenger transport and retail/wholesale industries.
Other Services
We can help with business valuations/share valuations, litigation support (eg warranty claims) and dispute resolution including complex contract disputes and high new worth divorces. See our other services section under our services for more!
