Chimaera's Strategic Transaction Group makes use of certain institutional finance tools that aggressively leverage the capital of clients. Using these tools, Chimaera tailors its offerings to meet the exact needs of its clients and their deals, whether they involve debt or equity, a capital raise of public issuance or an excluded offer; or a tailored offering of hybrid securities.
The breadth of Chimaera's services is designed to provide corporate organisations and high net worth groups with the essential resources to deliver superior returns to shareholders and proprietors regardless of the underlying company structure.
Mergers and Acquisitions
When a company enters a new market to diversify their core business activities, or searches opportunities to expand, Chimaera provides direct solutions through:
Mergers and Acquisitions - providing business valuation, tax and business advisory services for two or more companies combining their resources, or when a suitor seeks to acquire a controlling interest in its target;
Joint Ventures - developing strategies of law, taxation and trade practices for companies wishing to undertake the same business strategy and plan of action in either the short or the long term; and
Leveraged Buy Outs (LBOs) - allowing companies to access borrowed funds to effect a takeover of another company, in which Chimaera may, on occasion, acquire an equity position.
Structured Asset Based Finance
- Initial Public Offerings (IPO's) - to raise capital for a company that will float on one or more stock exchange;
- Capital restructuring - we maintain an open perspective and create innovative strategies for success, through resolving business and financial issues relating to a company's capital structure;
- Balance sheet restructuring - reviewing company debt and equity to determine if current and future needs are being properly addressed with the existing company structure;
- Taxation planning - developing efficient tax based funding strategies and vehicles; and
- Divestment planning - creating strategies that increase shareholder value, emphasising core competencies and improving company profitability.
