Financial restructuring and debt advisory experts
As an independent advisor, we help clients assess financing alternatives, determine optimal structures, and identify suitable financing sources among banks, institutional investors, and other capital providers, including equity funding when needed.
Our work includes analyzing the company’s financing capacity, supporting negotiations on terms and covenants, and coordinating the process from initial discussions through to closing. We assist in securing both senior and subordinated debt, as well as hybrid or convertible instruments, always ensuring that the chosen structure aligns with the client’s strategic and financial objectives.
Leveraging our transaction experience and market insight, we provide objective advice and efficient execution – giving clients clarity, flexibility, and confidence in their capital structure and financing decisions.

Frequently asked questions
- What does Sisu Partners’ equity and debt advisory actually cover?
-
We advise companies on financing decisions but do not provide financing ourselves. We help clients evaluate options, structure their approach, and manage interaction with banks, investors, and other capital providers. This covers everything from analyzing the current capital structure and financial profile to preparing materials, facilitating lender or investor discussions, and supporting negotiations to completion.
- What does debt restructuring advisory involve?
-
When a company faces challenges with its existing debt structure, we help assess the situation, evaluate options, and develop a strategy. These challenges could be covenant pressure, refinancing needs, or a broader financial restructuring. The strategy may involve renegotiating terms with existing lenders, identifying new financing sources, or considering structural changes such as divestments or carve-outs to restore financial stability. We act exclusively as the company’s adviser – never as a lender or investor – so our interests are fully aligned with yours.
- What types of financing situations do you advise on?
-
We advise on growth financing, acquisition financing, refinancing, rights issues, equity raises, financial restructurings, and more. The common thread is that companies need an experienced, independent adviser to help evaluate options and manage the process. This could involve banks, institutional investors, or private capital. If you are unsure whether you need an adviser, it is worth contacting us.
- How does equity and debt advisory differ from simply approaching a bank directly?
-
Approaching a single lender or investor may put you at a negotiating disadvantage. An adviser helps you understand your financing alternatives and market terms. We run a structured process with multiple counterparties where appropriate, helping ensure you achieve the best terms given your situation. We also help prepare the necessary materials and financial analysis for lenders and investors, which improves both the speed and outcome of the process.
