Capacent makes procuring financing a transparent process
When procuring financing you will be up against professionals whose main business concept is to capitalize on your need for funds

• We offer our clients access to in-depth knowledge in market pricing, market practice and negotiation. All parts of the client’s procurement are handled by an experienced team with a proven track record. Our consultants include both former bankers and corporate treasurers
• In financing projects led by us, clients typically experience significant cost savings in decreased margins and fees as well as improved terms that increase the client’s operational and strategic flexibility. Optimizing tax aspects contributes to the generation of additional savings
• We ensure that clients gain a full understanding of the implications of financing agreement terms and how to prioritize them, thereby increasing clients' negotiating power and ensuring that the optimal deal can be reached
• The amount of risk from a financier perspective will be significantly reduced by the composition of a comprehensive business case, explaining the purpose, repayment capacity and strategic ambitions of the client
• The possibility of success fee–based remuneration ensures value for money

We help our clients achieve best practice in debt management

• Many corporates have billions in debt but lack a way of managing and monitoring the risk vs. cost performance of their debt portfolio
• Debt management is largely about handling risks (refinancing risk, risk of breaking covenants, currency risk and interest rate risk); excelling at it requires attention and a structured approach. In the current financial climate, managing these risk is of utmost importance
• We help our clients define a debt portfolio strategy, performance measures and how to follow up on portfolio performance; in addition, we support our clients in detailing a structured working order that ensures continuity and prevents default from occurring
• Accurate cash forecasting and good cash management are other prerequisites for effective debt management (see more on these areas under Finance and Treasury Operations)
