Securing the funding to grow and expand a business is a challenging and complicated process. Pitfalls await at every step and
one wrong decision can leave your business without funding or worse. Global Business Services has an international network of
professionals experienced in the varied aspects of business equity. As each situation is unique GBS has eschewed the typical
"one size fits all" approach in favour of tailored solutions designed for each new client.
Let us assist you in deciding what form of funding best meets your requirements and take the highway to business success.
Types of financing available include:
– Business Loan
In some cases a loan can be the most appropriate method of financing. Advantageous as it does not dilute shareholdings or
control of the company it can often be a preferred solution either alone or combined with other methods.
Our strong relationships with various lenders in the region and familiarity with their requirements can assist you in gaining a
favourable result upon application.
– Joint Venture Partnerships
Joint Venture Partnerships can be an excellent way to gain the funding needed for expansion. Joint Venture Partners usually
have specific fields and regional areas of focus and identifying which to approach can be a time consuming and difficult process.
Global Business Services has access to a global network of JVP's and can quickly put your business plan in front of the right people.
– Venture Capital
Venture Capital is an excellent way to gain large amounts of funding however it usually requires giving up some control of the
company and repayment with interest of any loans. Venture Capitalists generally require very clearly defined exit strategies within
a pre-set time line.
Global Business Services has access to a global network of venture capitalists and can assist you in identifying which to approach
as well as tailoring the offering to suit their expectations.
– Private Placement
A Private Placement involves offering shares in your company as investment to private investors. A suitably constructed offering can
quickly attract interest and can be an excellent method to fast track funding for your business.
Making a private placement offering can be a complicated matter with numerous legal and financial requirements to meet. GBS
extensive experience in these matters and access to a large number of private investors can make the process relatively easy
and swift.
– Public Listing A public listing can raise more capital then perhaps any other method, however it can be a very tedious and difficult process to
undertake. Knowing which banks to talk to, what their expectations are, and how to best approach them can mean the difference
between success and failure. Global Business Services has relationships with a number of banks in the region enabling you to get
your business offering in front of the right people. |
