Looking for correct credit qualifications
It is not always easy to be sure in advance whether your buy-out will be a traditional MBO or an MBI, or whether the purchasers will be your managers and/or employees with or without any institutional partners.
But, before you consider this aspect in detail, it is probably a good idea to remind yourself of the three important general questions that need to be answered in the affirmative before you can seriously consider an MBO and, therefore, before you tailor your business for this exit. These are:
Does the business have suitable management?
Do historical financial reports and cash flow projections show that the business has adequate maintainable cash flows to service the requisite borrowings?
Does the business have strong growth prospects?
The importance of these characteristics will become clearer as we consider each type of MBO more closely. But first, consider articles below which summarises the qualifications of a business for a traditional MBO.
Hello! My name is Barbara Howard. I am a graduate from University of Pennsylvania and a certified finance assistant. So far I shared my knowledge and experience in form of published books and articles, but recently I discovered blogging, and thus I prepared this website so that you can learn the basics of money management and responsible credit taking as well. Hope you enjoy the lecture!
