PARTNERSHIP
This form of cooperation has a positive effect on the growth of the company's value (Enterprise Value). As international experience shows, private-equity funds’ participation in a company’s structure makes a direct effect on the growth of the business value of the company, generating multiplier of the equity value from 1.5 X to 4.0 X.
By attracting funds through direct equity investment, company increases its debt capacity.
Equity investment is a good alternative to classic bank loan. Provision of pledged assets is one of the bank requirements. In case of financial turbulence and difficulties, the bank has a legitimate justification for a full and early repayment of the loan (foreclosure). Whereas, Alassio Capital shares investment risks together with the founders, stimulating further development of the company.
