Financing & Restructuring

Review your financing strategy with IFBC and unlock untapped potential. We help you to optimally tailor financing to your business model, your long-term corporate goals and the short-term needs of day-to-day business and implement them accordingly.

Capabilities & Collaboration

We draw on a wealth of experience in the development of financing concepts for companies, but also in the development, implementation and training of credit granting processes at leading financial institutions. Our expertise covers the entire spectrum of financing options and is tried and tested in practice. Thanks to this expertise and our unique network, we are able not only to develop tailor-made solutions according to your requirements, but also to implement them. In doing so, we focus on your needs in terms of capital requirements, flexibility, security, risk diversification and capital costs.

Capital Need & Structure Analysis

We determine your financing requirements and coordinate them with the financing measures and capital structure. We help you prepare meaningful documents for your investors and financing partners and align your planning tools and reports with your strategic goals. To do this, we take into account your business model and strategic objectives, liquidity and capital requirements planning, existing financing and obligations, debt capacity, preferred sources of financing, and capital costs and risks. Together with you, we develop suitable solutions. Take advantage of our expertise and remove financing hurdles early on.

Capital Raising & Refinancing

Regardless of whether you need additional capital, replace expiring financing, or want to optimize ongoing financing, we pave the way between you and potential investors. Benefit from our experience from numerous credit and capital market transactions for well-known corporates as well as in negotiating with investors. We get in touch with potential investors, prepare the necessary documents and support you through to realizing your financing. Benefit from our know-how to seize your opportunities.

Working Capital Financing

Financing working capital is an important element of corporate finance, and one that often gets overlooked. We support you in analyzing and defining your long-term requirements and help you to put them into practice with suitable financing partners and instruments. Create a strong foundation with efficient working capital management that allows you to achieve a healthy balance between liquidity, risk and profitability. Our approach gives you flexibility to act in the short term while reconciling the financial security of your day-to-day business with the long-term optimization of your financing.

Project Finance

Prepare your long-term projects with foresight and rely on the best structure and the right financing partners from the outset. We have the expertise from numerous infrastructure projects and cooperations in the energy and industrial sectors to clarify the key financing issues before the project begins.Together with you, we prepare the core elements: project sponsor, project documentation, financial planning, financing instruments and risk allocation and lay the foundation for your long-term project success with secure financing.

Special Forms of Funding

Maintain your flexibility at all times by diversifying your financing strategy. Looking beyond traditional access to credit and capital markets offers additional possibilities. If "use-of-proceeds" financing (e.g. Green Bonds), private placements, leasing, factoring, finetrading or other forms of trade financing are used correctly, they can effectively complement corporate financing. We support you in analyzing your financing needs and using the appropriate instruments depending on the financing purpose and horizon. Use the special forms as an innovative way to address individual company needs and diversify your financing strategy.
