      Take a strategic approach to debt management

      We can help you to consider all of your funding options across the complete capital structure – including debt, equity and everything in between (such as subordinated debt, hybrids, convertible notes etc). If you have existing debt facilities in place, and seeking to refinance or reconsider your options, or if you are raising new debt (for acquisitions, capital expenditure, growth, greenfield or brownfield development opportunities), we should be your partner of choice.

      KPMG’s Debt Advisory team helps you realistically appraise the nature of your banking relationships, evaluate alternatives, understand the true cost of capital, and approach debt as an effective overall capital management strategy.

      We also ensure competitive tension is created and maintained through a competitive financing process, designed to achieve optimal terms for you as the borrower (rather than the financier).
