Finding Sources of Funds for Financing Acquisitions

摘要

Acquiring a printing or a packaging company is a complex process - and so is arranging the funding that makes the transaction possible. Most buyers, and especially those making their first acquisitions, will have homework to do about putting together the "stack" of capital they'll need. The general approach depends on whether the buyer is acquiring for strategic or financial reasons. Strategic buyers typically are owners of printing and packaging companies who want to acquire other printing and packaging companies in order to grow their existing businesses. Financial buyers are investors seeking high returns on the money they put up, but not necessarily permanent ownership of the assets they acquire.
