Management Buy Out

When buying a company as a management buyout candidate 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 Venture Capitalists and present the opportunity that investors are used to seeing MBO opportunities.

The vendor's advisor will be aiming for the maximum possible price and investors to maximise their funds return. It is your advisor's job to manage these factors to ensure that you receive the maximum possible equity stake in your MBO.

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 top venture capitalist investors across the world.
