Business support tools

Corporate Banking

Structured Finance

We structure tailored funding solutions to reinforce the growth and development plans of companies with high industrial potential and growth prospects. We intervene at times of significant discontinuity in a company’s life to implement key investment or business acquisition projects that call for highly specialised skills.

Turnaround & Credit Opportunities

In distress situations we work by using a variety of instruments and technical forms, also in combination:

Disbursement of new super senior finance (possibly by way of “pre-deduction” as defined by the New Crisis Code.
Purchase of single name loans with the resulting revision of terms and conditions.

In cases of discontinuity, we mainly perform two kinds of intervention:

Refinancing to complete a revival path (e.g. early withdrawal from restructuring agreements, bridges and extraordinary operations).
New funding in the form of subordinated or hybrid debt instruments (e.g. bullet or convertible financing), supporting the restructuring/simplification of the capital structure and/or accelerating development plans.

Factoring

Solutions to fund working capital and supply chain finance and obtain short-term liquidity. Factoring performs four functions having the aim of enabling companies to receive payment for their invoices by transferring credit risk to factors: invoice management; covering invoice risk by having the factor pay over the billed amount; obtaining liquidity, this representing the financing feature; and finally improving credit access ratings.
