Best possible
terms &
conditions

We develop and implement financing strategies for our MidCap (“Mittelstand”) customers, usually headquartered in the DACH region. Our customers are typically privately-owned or stock-listed companies with a long-standing operational history and track-record and revenues between EUR 100m and 2,500m, an EBITDA in excess of EUR 7.5m and / or overall financing requirements of at least EUR 20m, predominantly from the traditional German industries, such as, amongst others:

  • Automotive supply
  • Business services
  • Chemicals
  • Construction & infrastructure
  • Forestry, paper & packaging
  • Industrial machinery & plant engineering
  • Metals & materials
  • Pharma
  • TMT (technology, media & telecommunication)
  • Transport & logistics

Over the last 15 years, FCF has gained vast experience and track-record, helping us to understand the challenges of our clients in their respective industries. We advise and support our clients’ management on all their financing requirements – from working capital, through growth, capex & investments, re-financings, acquisitions, etc. all the way to special financing situations such as management buy-outs / buy-ins and succession planning.  We help designing the right investment or credit story in order to attract high interest from debt or equity providers in order to generate a competitive financing process and, hence, the best possible terms & conditions for our clients.
