Dear Readers,
Welcome to the October 2019 edition of Funding Strategies Connect!
I recently attended the Australia M&A Forum and the annual AICD Essential Director Update.
There were some common themes on the regulatory / compliance and ESG (environmental, social and governance) fronts. Investors are becoming more active and supporting enterprises that innovate and support ESG ethics.
We are seeing increased investor interest with private equity in particular having lots of “dry powder” and the low dollar assisting foreign buyers. There is also a trend away from IPOs given the current weight of capital in the private markets.
As a group we have seen increased issuer and investor activity and are looking to close a number of deals prior to the end of the year.
In terms of delivery we are seeing an increased focus from clients looking for assistance around debt financing including acquisition financing; investor distribution and marketing including co-ordination of raising capital, preparing investor documents and financials.
We are also actively seeking M&A deals as we have a number of buyers / investors in a range of sectors.
Please contact us if you wish to discuss the above.
