Case Summary
One of the world’s largest investment banks retained Monticello Capital as its “arms length” financial advisor to advise equity arbitrage during industry consolidation. The merger itself, joining giants in the industry, was international front-page business news. Monticello Capital’s role was to maximize upside gain for the international bank - where unique industry-specific knowledge, the ability to keep an unbroken confidence from media and Wall Street analysts, and Monticello Capital’s proximity to Washington DC’s federal technology service sector all factored into the client’s success.
Case Summary
Monticello Capital was retained by a private equity fund - one of the most prominent and successful asset-management financial services corporations in the US. The transaction was the fund’s set-up of a new service enterprise for several young entrepreneurs with industry-unique knowledge. Monticello Capital’s role was to structure and value multiple interconnected classes of preferred and common equity in fairness to the entrepreneurs during a deal of high sophistication and complexity. The client realized that success in the out-years of the investment would require the difficult financial work to be completed early by Monticello Capital, a trusted outside firm. This was a sound judgment on the part of the client, because both the entrepreneurs and their financing partners later enjoyed phenomenal operational success and an extraordinary return exit event.
