Refinancing Bank Facilities

A core offering GGW provides is support to corporates seeking a refinancing of their business, usually re-negotiating or refinancing their current indebtedness. With our base in the City of London we have a significant reach to a wide variety of world-class financial institutions-both bank an non-bank debt providers. More often than not this does not simply involve putting a borrower and lender together; we have the skills to structure and negotiate along side our clients and are comfortable supporting with financial modelling, dealing with the suite of legal documentation, assisting with due diligence reporting and taking a transaction through to drawdown.

Raising New Debt

We have assisted numerous clients raising new debt in order to undertake a new project or raise some additional headroom for expansion. Again, we are able to provide a full origination to completion service. This is particularly pertinent in the sphere of real estate development, which is one of our more active segments. In terms of products we have access to significant sources of private equity providers (usually structured as debt), mezzanine and bridging finance as well as vanilla Senior Debt including a wide range of working capital facilities.

Working Capital

We are experienced in all aspects of structuring innovative and effective working capital facilities to meet the changing needs of trading and services businesses. Our longstanding relationships with banks and non-bank funders, asset-based lenders and credit insurers enables us to advise on the most suitable partners for mid-market corporate clients covering both domestic and cross-border transactions, management buyouts or acquisitions.

Financial Covenants & Monitoring

Many of our clients choose to retain our services post legal completion and provide on-going support and monitoring-more often than not until a particular project achieves completion. We are able to support with continuing financial reporting and monitoring and attending engagement meetings with funding institutions. This may allow essential management time for the client to focus upon successfully delivering their Business Plan.

Negotiating Competitive T&C's

We always to endeavour to obtain the optimal deal for our clients not only in terms of pricing but on delivering flexible financing structures, which comfortably meet our clients’ needs. We will, if required, take an active role in negotiating with lenders to ensure any offer is fit for purpose, in relation to the suitability for their business.

Benchmarking Pricing, Margins & Fees

One of the key support skills we have is our reach to a wide number of financial institutions - we are able to provide most clients with financing and refinancing options which will benchmark not only the price they are paying but also re-positioning pricing, in the light of prevalent market conditions. Pricing is a key consideration alongside the suitability and structure of finance offered by funders.

Risk Management Strategies

With a robust in-house experience in treasury services, we are able to advise clients in relation to their interest rate and foreign currency exposures and provide solutions and counterparties. In a continuing low yielding cash environment, we are also able to source more attractive deposit rates offered by reputable banking institutions, enabling our clients to manage their surplus cash more effectively.
