Selected transactions

We advised a UK-based renewable energy platform on a €45m unitranche facility to fund its acquisition pipeline. We ran a competitive process across 12 direct lenders and unitranche providers, achieving a 200bps improvement on margin versus the client's incumbent banking facility, while extending tenor and easing covenants to reflect the platform's growth trajectory.

We acted as placement agent for a €150m European private credit fund led by an emerging manager spinning out of a larger institution. We mapped and approached an investor universe focused on UK and Continental European institutional LPs, family offices and selected GCC investors. The fund achieved a first close within six months of mandate signing.

We acted as sell-side adviser to the shareholders of a UK business services company in a managed sale process. The transaction concluded with an acquisition by a pan-European private equity firm. We led valuation, process design, buyer identification, materials and negotiation through to signing.

We advised a management team on the financing of a buyout of an Italian manufacturing business. The transaction was funded through a combination of unitranche debt and equity co-investment, with First Boston Capital running both the lender process and the introduction to the equity sponsor.

We placed a co-investment opportunity in a European renewable energy asset with a network of GCC family office investors. The mandate was executed through our DIFC entity under our DFSA Category 4 authorisation.
