CurrentPME Capital is focused on assisting international companies with structuring and obtaining financing for middle-market acquisitions and investments in the United States. PME Capital concentrates on transactions which require mezzanine financing but will also in selected situations assist with bridge loans, senior debt and equity financings. Many international companies are today eager to acquire US companies in order to gain market share, access to distribution or access to production facilities. However, international middle-market buyers of US companies often have difficulties financing acquisitions. Their local banks are often not well equipped to service them for this size of transaction, while US banks on the other hand are typically less comfortable with providing financing to borrowers headquartered abroad and less interested in such companies as clients. At the same time, the international buyers are reluctant to raise equity capital in the US to finance acquisitions as they wish to remain in full control of their operations.
