Capital markets

What is capital market consulting?

Raising capital, whether through an IPO, via a merger with a SPAC or by raising debt, can transform the way a company operates.

Our Capital Markets Integrated Solution brings a cross-functional holistic view to capital raising, helping our clients create value by identifying new ways to access capital or focus investment where it matters most. We also bring industry-leading project management to help address today’s increasing complexity of capital markets transactions.

We bring together an integrated set of multi-competency capabilities along with a digitally enabled approach to advise on IPOs and follow-on offerings, SPAC mergers and debt offerings.

Paths to liquidity

IPO

An initial public offering (IPO) is a cornerstone event for an organization, and preparation for “being public” is just as important as preparation for “going public.” Gaining maximum value from an IPO requires confidence, decisiveness and the right foundation for success.

SPAC

Special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) continue to gain popularity as a potential liquidity option for many companies. This method allows for a substantially shorter timeline than a traditional IPO but brings its own unique set of challenges.
