Capital Formation
We work closely with entrepreneurs and management teams to devise the best capital formation strategy, taking in to account important considerations around structure, valuation, timing and company culture. Whether it being mergers and acquisitions, public equity and/or debt underwriting, private placement equity and/or debt offering, raising capital for a real estate investment fund or for a venture capital fund, alternative financing or recapitalization, we rely on the breadth of our network and our access to proprietary data to open doors to funding sources that meet the specific needs of our clients – offering true alignment and deal terms that insure mutual success.
True Alignment
We seek to create true, long-term alignment with our clients beyond a one-time transaction. This has often resulted in us taking an equity position in clients alongside growth capital as well as repeat capital formation and M&A assignments over the years with clients who have become trusted partners. We take a hands-on approach to growing valuable businesses, and believe that active involvement with a company throughout its life cycle is a key to success. We work closely with senior management teams to develop and execute strategy, open doors to capital and strategic relationships, and ultimately create meaningful outcomes.
Tailored Solution
Proprietary ideas, customized advice and creative solutions to complex issues are what clients truly need and value. We work with carefully selected industry-focused investment bankers and broker dealer partners and trusted legal and accounting partners to provide the boutique investment banking services that offer attention and focus and are tailored to each client’s specific need.
Advisory: Merger, Acquisition, and Recapitalization
Sell Side Advisory: Contemplating the sale of a business can be daunting and fraught with misinformation. We simplify and streamline the process by offering management independent and unbiased advice. Clients rely upon our ability to identify and communicate the underlying value drivers in the business; our awareness of the operating strategies of each potential buyer; our assertive control of the auction and transaction process; our hands-on management of due diligence; and skillful negotiation. If the company is not ideally positioned to garner maximum value, we’ll recommend steps an owner can take before going to market that can lead to a higher value in an eventual sale.
Buy Side Advisory: CBC Securities acts on behalf of clients in searching and targeting companies or potential bidders to initialize a tender offer, structuring the terms of offerings, and performing independent due diligence for clients. We categorize potential targets, construct financial and integration models, develop corporate financing solutions, and negotiate on our client’s behalf.
Capital: Debt and Equity
Equity and debt capital represent the lifeblood for middle market companies. Clients are increasingly looking to the firm to arrange various corporate finance alternatives. Such mechanisms can be instrumental in helping companies expand operations, fund acquisitions and restructure balance sheets, raise capital for client’s venture capital fund or real estate investment fund, all aimed at capturing opportunities in the current market or for the future.
With access to sources of capital on both public and private market, CBC Securities works diligently with middle market companies to successfully raise growth capital in both debt and equity markets.

We work with emerging growth companys and private equity funds including real estate investment fund and venture capital fund to conduct regulation D 506(c) offering, regulation A+ offering, regulation S offering, and Rule 144A offering based on each company’s unique situation and goal.
