Acquisition Finance

Acquisition Finance examines in detail the commercial and structural framework and the nature of acquisition finance and buy-outs generally. It explores

• the development of the acquisition finance and private equity markets in the UK
• the various financial instruments and structures used,
• current market practice
• how deals are executed successfully

There are dedicated chapters on the acquisition itself, private equity, senior debt, second lien, mezzanine, high yield, PIK notes, structuring deals, executing deals, intercredit or aspects, public-to-privates and multi-jurisdictional deals.

Whilst it is not intended for lawyers alone it does focus on the documentary and deal execution aspects of its subject matter, and will be of particular use for both private equity and acquisition finance lawyers as well as bankers, accountants, private equity professionals and other private equity and acquisition finance industry players and observers.
