Debt Private Placements

The private placement market is a fully negotiated source of long-term debt capital that can be raised without the time and expense of SEC registration. Benefits of the market include quick execution, delayed amortization, flexible covenant packages, confidentiality, and pre-packaged documentation. Additionally, formal credit ratings are not necessary.

Wachovia has an experienced team of dedicated professionals who structure and execute these types of financings for companies. Whether your company is in need of capital for acquisitions, internal growth, recapitalizations, or buyouts, our highly skilled and experienced professionals can arrange the most appropriate financing.
