Our Corporate Finance team bridges the gap between Property and Financial advice. We pride ourselves on being able to see beyond just bricks and mortar and are able to advise on all aspects of property financing, restructuring, corporate acquisitions and business planning.
Typical instructions we undertake are:
Mergers and acquisitions. Our clients rely on well-structured deals for building long-term value. We act for buyers or sellers of real estate, asset-backed businesses or loan books, and advise on all aspects of the M&A process including downstream business strategies.
‘Joined Up’ Acquisition and Due Diligence advice. We have extensive experience of coordinating the diligence processes.
Innovative Financing Solutions. We are able to advise on maximising long term value from real estate through creative financing options that are not only suited to the clients needs, but also appropriate for the market.
Joint ventures. We are able to advise on the joint venture process, find partners and negotiate robust agreements between parties maximising value for our clients.
Restructuring. In conjunction with our Loan Servicing and Recovery and Restructuring Services teams we are able to offer coherent and coordinated solutions to restructure real estate portfolios and corporate financial solutions.

We provided a full set of corporate finance services for the sale of 340 individual retail units, almost 1 million sq ft of space and in excess of 7,000 car spaces, that were owned by a consortium of UK Institutions including BP, Aviva, AXA and McArthur Glen. All units were let on turnover based leases. The centres had been developed and managed since inception by McArthur Glen. We conducted pre-sale due diligence, formulated a marketing strategy, managed the bid process and secured staple financing. The result was a sale of the assets to Henderson Global Investors for £364.5 Million.
