Management Buy-Ins

We help management teams through our relationships with the UK’s major financial institutions to conclude business acquisition deals with meticulous detail.

BTG Advisory has vast experience in advising management teams on management buy-in (MBI) procedures where a new merger team take ownership of the business often backed by private equity funding.

Recognised as one of the most experienced Corporate Finance teams in the UK, with an outstanding reputation for deal origination and execution, we help management buy in teams conclude business acquisition deals with meticulous detail. We have strong relationships with the UK’s venture capitalist and debt providers and, as a result, have a deep understanding of funders that can meet your requirements to achieve a successful completion but remaining guarded and aware of the many pitfalls that can jeopardise the MBI process throughout.

Obtaining finance for a management buy in is traditionally a difficult process, particularly when compared to a management buyout. From a lender's perspective, a key consideration for MBIs will be the high inherent risk attached to an incoming management that will not be as familiar with the business as the incumbent management team. It is because of this risk that funding can prove trickier to secure. Banks can often be hesitant to lend for this reason but thankfully, through our key relationships with a variety of lenders, we have access to a wide range of funding options that can make the difference for acquisitive teams or individuals.

We can advise across the entire acquisition process from start to finish, including undertaking due diligence and seeing the negotiations through to a smooth completion. We are recognised as a leading adviser on MBIs with the experience, commitment and relationships to manage the often complex and time consuming process on behalf of management Buy-in teams.

We make it our responsibility to manage the many complexities of the process and to ensure that management teams remain focused on maintaining the performance of the business at this crucial time.

We offer strong and impartial advice throughout this often sensitive process – for more information or a free consultation, contact BTG Advisory today.
