Utmost discretion and professional realization

We know the ins and outs of the capital market and have top contacts in the banking world where we enjoy a first-rate reputation. With Metzler as your advisor for capital market transactions you profit from the expertise of an investment bank broadly positioned in all areas of capital market relevance. You can rest assured that we will uncompromisingly take up your cause because we do not pursue any financing or placement interests of our own and refrain from proprietary trading.

Comprehensive advice on all phases of a flotation

In the field of IPOs and secondaries, our focus lies on the client's goal of seeing its shares placed smoothly and at the best possible conditions. For consistency's sake, we steer clear of involvement in syndicates so as to advise our clients without conflict of interest. Our IPO support encompasses structuring the target, selecting the placement group, developing the investment story and determining the placement and investor structure.

Professional transaction management also for public tender offers

Discretion, experience and professionalism are what make us your authoritative partner for public tender offers. If necessary, we also function as tender agent. We help you to devise a state-of-the-art concept tailored to your goals, formulate a convincing offer and direct the transaction.

Fairness opinions: Viable basis for statements on public tender offers

Market practice today generally requires a fairness opinion, particularly in near-capital market transactions. As an independent bank with an excellent reputation, we establish the basis for a well-founded statement in the form of a fairness opinion.

Specialist for effective strategies in defense advice

We help you to effectively minimize the risk of hostile takeovers. This includes developing a catalog of preemptive measures as well as a defense manual, and devising a communication roadmap for offering a swift answer to an undesired takeover bid should the need arise. We also develop concepts to upgrade the value of your company and to convincingly communicate this potential.
