FINANCIAL STRUCTURING
AND FUNDRAISING

Cedrom advises clients when financial sophistication is needed for debt restructuring, securitization and capitalization (equity). For more complex cases, Cedrom seeks a combination of various fundraising methods, always identifying the most effective path for its clients to obtain capital.

A detailed analysis of the capital structure and financial strength is carried out by professionals who have extensive experience in the area serving mid-size companies and who maintain partnerships with financial institutions and investment firms. These are the differentials which guarantee successful transactions.

Some forms of capitalization include:

• Financing with real estate collateral
• Financing for working capital
• Financing for new investments
• Receivables Investment Funds (FIDCs)
• Bank Credit Notes (CCBs)
• Debentures/Bonds
• Debêntures
