Debt & Equity Investment

Our Corporate & Commercial Team regularly advise companies in relation to corporate investment funding under debt or equity transactions.

Companies may decide to raise funds internally by going through an internal funding round whereby existing stakeholders invest funds into the company in exchange for the issue of a debt security such as a loan note or the issue of new shares.

Alternatively, companies may raise funds from external investment sources. Such investors may take preferred shares in the capital of the company which have preferred or additional rights to ordinary shares or they may take a form of debt security.
