Helvetische Bank Services

• Equity Capital Markets

  Our team has extensive experience advising listed and private companies across a broad range of equity capital markets transactions. These include capital increases and rights offerings, initial public offerings (IPOs) including feasibility studies, listings, reverse takeovers as well as equity placements and growth financing transactions. We also advise on share buyback programmes and corporate actions such as share splits and nominal value reductions.

• Debt Capital Markets

  We are one of the market leaders in small CHF-denominated bonds. We structure and place bonds and convertible bonds for Swiss and foreign companies.

  We typically provide firm underwriting, thereby ensuring transaction certainty for issuers prior to distribution to investors. Issuers also benefit from the fact that the bonds are unsecured and have no restrictive financial covenants. We also support in negotiating with private debt providers and other lenders.

  We are among the leading Swiss banks in the area of public takeovers. We advise bidders as financial advisor and executing bank in the structuring and execution of public takeover bids.

  We also advise on the acquisition and sale of private companies and business units, as well as mergers. Furthermore, our services include succession planning, takeover and defence strategies.

• Further Services

  We advise on the optimisation of the capital structure and the corresponding implementation with equity, debt or hybrid forms, implement employee participation programmes and support in financial restructuring if required.

• Research

  Our experienced research team focuses on the Swiss capital market, carrying out primary analysis with a focus on mid- and small-cap companies. It also produces specific company research in connection with equity- or bond-related capital market transactions of Helvetische Bank.
