"In a complex transaction, BTG Advisory worked quickly and uncovered the key areas of financial and commercial risk in the business. As a result, we had highly valuable information which enabled us to negotiate with multiple stakeholders, and complete the acquisition on very attractive terms."
Director, Private Equity House
"We had a situation where a major co-investor defaulted on its funding commitments, which could have brought down the entire group. BTG Advisory came up with an innovative legal and financial solution enabling us to take control of the business and finance its future growth efficiently, and subsequently arranged new lending facilities to provide appropriate working capital facilities."
London based Private Equity House
"We see BTG Advisory as partners, not just advisers. They understand problems quickly, and have a great commercial approach to getting things done."
