CCV was initially formed to provide a range of solutions for
both insurance brokers and underwriting agencies who wish to
consider a sale or partial sale of their business.
If you can answer yes or maybe to any of the following
statements then getting in touch with CCV should be your next
move.
"I own a brokerage or underwriting agency and
am seeking to sell"
"I wish to realise some of my investment in my business, whilst
still retaining an equity stake"
"I need to raise capital to exit an existing shareholder or
partner"
"I need to raise capital to fund ambitious growth plans"
"I have a viable business plan to start a new brokerage or
underwriting agency"
CCV was created to answer
your needs.
Many brokers will wish at some time
(particularly near retirement) to realise all or part of their
investment in their business, whilst protecting their staff and
without being absorbed into a much larger entity. CCV will make
outright acquisitions of brokers without changing the brand name,
premises or existing management. Owners can feel comfortable about
realising their investment in the knowledge that there will be
minimal change to day to day operations other than the benefit of
access to a range of support in sales and marketing, IT, compliance
and access to first class products and markets. Owners, or
other key staff within the business, can retain an equity
stake which CCV will help to grow significantly in value.
Making acquisitions is the quickest way to grow the scale and
value of your business, providing a better home for both staff and
customers. However, completing acquisitions is a time consuming and
expensive process, from sourcing appropriate funding, through legal
and financial due diligence, right through to integrating the new
business after completion.
With CCV, we have an experienced team of
acquisition specialists together with significant funding and can
help CCV businesses make their own acquisitions.
Younger shareholders, or managers, may
find themselves in the position of wishing to buy out an older
share holder or owner. CCV is willing to take a minority
equity stake, within a flexible deal structure, to help fund
management deals of this kind. The new leadership is left to
stamp its own mark on the business within the support structures of
CCV.
In today's market starting an insurance
brokerage or underwriting agency, or funding highly aggressive
growth plans for an existing business, is not easy. Few venture
capitalists have specialist insurance experience and in the main
they will be looking to invest well in excess of £5m and will
expect a short term pay-back. Smaller businesses struggle to find
funding providers who understand their business plan. CCV fills
that gap and is able to provide sensible input and financial
support to any viable business plan.
The process of selling your business may seem daunting, so we
have made the process as simple as possible. Our legal team is
skilled at reducing contracts to the "must haves" rather than
being filled with unnecessary clauses.
We prefer the simple to the complex and our
track record speaks for itself in our ability to carry through our
promises.
