Key challenges

Some of the key challenges organisations face when dealing with capital market transactions:

Initial public offerings (IPOs)

IPOs make substantial demands on organisations and the transformation required cannot be underestimated. It is important that organisations evaluate the pros and cons of becoming a public company and that they are prepared for the additional disciplines that they will need to take on once the IPO has been finalised. We support companies seeking to IPO in the UK, or elsewhere (including US IPOs), through our IPO Readiness Assessment tool.

Other offers

M&A activity often involves an equity raise and/or placements (be it through a Rights issue or Further offer). In addition, with market uncertainty and increased debt costs many listed companies are looking to reduce their net debt through similar means.

This can be a complicated process. We advise clients on the capital market requirements and support in drafting as required, including input to shareholder documents.

Debt capital markets

The complexities and dynamic nature of debt capital markets can make navigating and executing cross-border bond and debt transactions challenging. Executing a transaction may require the publication of historical financial information for the guarantor group, we can support with the preparation of that financial information and prepare the supporting documents for assurance.

We can support you with expert, hands-on advice; support in preparing the relevant financial information included in the various documents and maximise value to multiple stakeholders in the transaction compliance process.

Divestments

Divestments are complex and high risk. Maximising the value obtained for the asset, while controlling the costs associated with the transaction and managing a diverse group of both internal and external stakeholders, is a significant undertaking. This requires thoughtful planning and execution. PwC can help you get the financial information ready and prepared for all of your stakeholders including investment banks, auditors and buyers.
