A&M Debt Advisory helps companies to plan, select, source, negotiate and amend debt finance across a range of debt markets, structures and geographies.

Debt markets are more sophisticated and more complex than ever before. The A&M Debt Advisory team supports borrowers in navigating those markets.

The team comprises ex-bankers and advisors and has many years of expertise across the credit spectrum, both with experienced borrowers and those approaching the new markets for the first time.  Members of the team have worked on transactions across the different types of borrowing instruments in both the private and public capital markets.

The advice stretches from optimising the capital structure and reviewing financing options through to planning and execution. Execution assistance includes identifying potential lenders and investors, presenting the credit story and negotiating the best pricing and optimal terms and conditions.

Regardless of whether the financing is needed for general or special purposes, the A&M team will focus on understanding strategy and securing sufficiently flexible terms to enable its client’s business to meet its strategic objectives.

The team is well equipped to support its Private Equity and Corporate clients through the economic cycle, providing high value-add advice on debt raising, capital structure optimisation and navigating challenging situations. Deep relationships across the lender community enable clients to access a range of liquidity pools.
