Shelbourne Advisory

What we do

Private Capital

Equity and debt from the investors best suited to the business and its owners.

  • Growing businesses raising capital
  • Shareholders seeking partial liquidity
  • Families planning succession

What we do

We match businesses with the right source of capital: family offices, private equity, strategic investors and private credit funds. We prepare the investment case, run a focused raise, and negotiate structures that fund growth while protecting what matters to the founders.

In practice

Where private capital is needed.

  • Growth and minority equityCapital for the plan from investors who understand the business, on terms that protect what matters to the founders.
  • Debt and structured financeSenior, unitranche and structured facilities from banks and private credit funds, matched to cash flow rather than to a template.
  • RecapitalisationsReleasing value to shareholders while keeping the business properly funded for what comes next.
  • Investor targetingFamily offices, private equity, strategic investors and private credit funds, chosen for fit rather than for a list.
  • Term‑sheet negotiationThe clauses that decide control, economics and exits, negotiated before they become expensive.
  • Shareholder liquidityPartial sales and secondary transactions that give some shareholders an exit without forcing one on the rest.
