Setting out a clear operating framework is what we carefully look into when engaging into consortium deals. Preliminary agreements are utmostly considered to address issues on bid negotiations, appointment of advisers, syndication rights, and equity commitment principles among others.

We specialize in creating different types of consortiums/syndications according to the available transaction or opportunity. Some of our common consortiums/syndications are:

• Joint Venture Consortiums: We create joint ventures, where we act as lead investors & contribute our specific expertise and resources to different aspects of the transaction.
• Strategic Partnership Consortiums:  The group is typically led by one or more private equity sponsors with support from a strategic investor or other industry partner providing specific expertise or resources. Strategic investors may have a particular focus on a portion of the target business or certain assets, which may be subject to an on-sale agreement to the strategic investor or separate governance or operational arrangements.
• Traditional Private Equity Syndicate (or "Co-sponsor" or "Club Deal"): Two or more private equity sponsors or, increasingly SWFs or pension funds, work together as partners to effect a transaction. Co-sponsors typically work actively as equal partners to design, diligence, and execute the transaction and manage the investment, but the group may include one or more "lead sponsors".
• Co-investment (or "Passive" co-investment): Typically offered by private equity sponsors to existing or prospective investors. Co-investors remain passive, economic participants and typically invest through a sponsor-managed entity.
