Equity Markets Solutions

We are unique in the mid-market at being able to deliver to clients every liquidity solution, from growth capital or debt-raising to an IPO, buy-out or company sale.

As part of Rothschild & Co, Europe’s first and No.1 IPO advisory firm since the inception of this service offering in 2010, we have unrivalled expertise in delivering equity market solutions that optimise our clients’ objectives.

For clients seeking optionality – and the luxury of a choice between a public market listing, a private capital backed investment or a complete exit to a strategic partner – we are exceptionally well-placed to bring you the best that each option offers.

An early, detailed feasibility study enables us to focus your energies on the options that meet your goals and aspirations. Our independent status and ability to deliver all options enables us to guide you to the best outcome for you, without fear of conflict or compromise.

Our services include:

  • Initial public offerings;
  • Multi-track IPO and M&A exits;
  • Private capital / pre-IPO and minority investments;
  • Secondary offerings;
  • Capital raisings, including rights issues and placings;
  • Associated – or alternative – debt-based fundraisings; and
  • SPAC listings and SPAC mergers (including PIPE placements).
