Your capital raising and borrowing needs

Leveraged Finance and Commercial Property Finance

We understand that businesses go through various life cycles and require a variety of bespoke term debt solutions to support their growth and unique needs at each cycle or stage. We can help you pursue strategic growth opportunities by optimising the financial structure of your business and advising on specialised term debt solutions on a leveraged basis or for commercial property focused initiatives.

Bespoke Capital Raising

We can assist your business by raising equity capital to support business growth, exit and wealth realisation plans. We have a wide network of capital providers (including RMB Ventures and RMB Corvest) that are seeking investment opportunities in the commercial segment. Capital raising is considered suitable for:

• Business' requiring capital for growth (with limited capacity for additional debt/mezzanine funding)
• Businesses' looking for a strategic partner to take the business further
• Shareholders looking to exit part or all of their business
• Structuring and advisory management buy-outs and other staff schemes
• Support balance sheet restructuring

In addition, we can help you traverse the transformation shareholding landscape in your business with the provision of the following BEE advisory services:

• Developing a BEE strategy regarding the ownership element
• Identification of suitable BEE partners
• Managing the process (from business valuation to share transfer where appropriate) and/or
• Sourcing of capital to support the transaction

Financial Advisory

We advise on raising debt when debt and growth requirements are beyond the capacity of the bank. By putting in place, a security structure that allows multiple lenders to share in the security, your business will realise the following benefits:

• Allows your business to access capital beyond the limits of one bank
• It allows FNB to solution for your business using other lenders as participants in the lending structure
• Cleaner capital structures to support long term financing needs
• This is likely to be a cheaper long term capital structure

In addition, we have a specialist team that can either advise your business on buying and selling certain business interests or implement risk management hedging strategies and instruments.
