We have advised Advancy, a multi-specialist strategy consulting firm, on the reorganisation of its capital through a quasi-equity financing brought by EMZ and a senior debt raising led and syndicated by LCL.
Founded in 1999 and headquartered in Paris, Advancy is a leading international independent and multi-specialist strategy consulting firm, notably a leader in the chemicals industry. The group operates across five industries: chemicals, industrials, construction, pharma and life science, consumer goods and retail, luxury and entertainment.
The group is benefiting from a balanced portfolio of loyal blue-chip corporate, large private equity houses and funds portfolio companies.
Advancy operates worldwide through c.250 consultants including 10 partners, spread across 10 offices in Boston, Frankfurt, London, Mumbai, New York, Paris, São Paulo, Shanghai, Singapore, and Sydney.
The transaction consists of rebalancing the shareholding structure between younger talents and founders while optimising the capital structure.
