Corporate Finance

When you want to buy or sell a business or raise money you need to have the right team working alongside you to get the best deal. At Cowgill Holloway we have a specialist team, ready to share with you their expertise, industry insight and knowledge allowing you to make the right next move for your business needs.

Buying and selling businesses

With a substantial client and contact base, powerful research databases and close connections with other firms operating in this market (including lawyers, brokers, merchant banks and other professionals), we can find the right match for your requirements and work with you every step of the way.

If you are buying a business you will need expert, specialist advice to make certain you pay the right price. We can actively seek a potential target, approach them on your behalf, carry out financial due diligence and advise you all the way through to completion.

Likewise, if you are selling your business, or considering selling it, you will need the right advice to help you achieve the most lucrative deal. We can find a buyer for you, negotiate on your behalf and structure the deal to minimise the tax you have to pay.

We have experts in the field who can work with you from the outset. Our Corporate Finance team can establish exactly what you need in terms of additional finance and approach the funding institutions that are most likely to be suited to the needs of your business - and thus speed up the process and maximise the chance of success.
