Financing

Access to capital is often the biggest challenge facing growing companies as they pursue their growth objectives internally or through acquisition. This challenge has been compounded by periodic shocks to the capital markets that have negatively impacted the ability of companies to secure capital from traditional sources, such as commercial banks.

EdgePoint has a unique blend of financing and business experience along with unmatched access to creative financing sources. EdgePoint’s capital access is particularly valuable in the following situations:

• Growth Capital
• Mergers & Acquisition
• Consolidations
• Management Buyouts
• Leveraged Buyouts
• Shareholder Buyouts
• Refinancing / Recapitalization

The goal of our financing experts is to create an optimal capital structure for each client. We oversee all aspects of a company's capitalization to maximize the flexibility, pricing and structure. We understand that capital must accommodate a business rather than drive a business while allowing for anticipated growth and future capital needs.

EdgePoint has a strong network of relationships with a variety of capital providers, including venture capital funds, hedge funds, institutional and private equity investors, insurance companies, mezzanine debt lenders and senior lenders such as banks and asset-based lenders. It is our relationships coupled with our financing experience that enables EdgePoint to provide extraordinary service to our clients.
