finnCap Group plc strengthens debt advisory team with
experienced hires
Graham Cooke and Krishan Raval bring an extensive track record
in sourcing debt funding for sponsored and non-sponsored
corporates
London, 5 June 2019 - finnCap Group plc ("finnCap"), a leading
adviser and broker to ambitious growth companies, is delighted to
announce that it has expanded its debt advisory team with two
senior new hires. The enlarged team will enhance finnCap's ability
to source and structure debt finance for its clients from an
increasingly diverse range of lenders.
Graham Cooke joins as a Partner from RBS/Natwest where he worked
for 30 years. He has experience in corporate coverage and debt
origination. Among his previous roles within RBS/Natwest, Graham
was national head of debt origination in structured finance with a
focus on the small to medium sized enterprise (SME)
marketplace.
Krishan Raval joins as an Associate from Livingstone Partners.
He has five years' experience and brings specific expertise in
sponsored and non-sponsored mid-market debt raise transactions
including refinancings, recapitalisations and acquisition
financings. Prior to his role at Livingstone Partners, Krishan was
an analyst at EY in the Capital and Debt Advisory team.
The appointments follow the increased deal flow seen by finnCap
across both public and private markets, including recent
transactions such as Universe Group plc's acquisition of Celtech,
Inflexion's acquisition of Creative Car Park and the refinancing of
Red7Marine.
finnCap's debt advisory team assists companies in sourcing debt
finance and advises on the structuring of that debt. An experienced
adviser has become more necessary than ever with debt finance now
being provided by an increasing variety of alternative and
traditional lenders. The debt advisory team works across public and
private, sponsored and non-sponsored businesses to advise on the
appropriate level of debt to help them accelerate their growth.
Alistair Hay, Partner at Cavendish Corporate Finance Debt
Advisory, comments: "I am delighted that Graham and Krishan have
joined finnCap's debt advisory business. Graham's extensive
experience of helping corporate clients to raise debt finance and
Krishan's private equity and corporate track record heighten our
understanding of the debt funding requirements of both sponsored
and non-sponsored companies."
Sam Smith, Chief Executive of finnCap Group plc, comments: "I am
very pleased to welcome Graham and Krishan to finnCap Group and
look forward to working with them as we continue to enhance the
Group's debt advisory capabilities. Both Graham and Krishan bring
immensely valuable experience and expertise. Their arrival further
strengthens finnCap's ability to advise across the ever-evolving
debt marketplace and is a key element of the capital raising
services we provide to ambitious growth companies."
