Charles Bailey
Client: UK National & resident
Loan Amount: Circa £1.6M
In this case, Enness was approached by a UK national seeking to release equity from their pre-IPO shares in a leading global tech company. The client’s shares, currently restricted and available on the secondary market, were considerably below market value and presented a unique challenge. Historically, lenders were reluctant to offer loans on these shares due to their restrictions and uncertainty around the company's IPO timeline.
Enness leveraged its deep knowledge of the stock and industry trends to carefully assess the potential for an IPO, enabling us to offer a tailored solution. After conducting thorough due diligence, we successfully negotiated a competitive loan, which included a desirable equity kicker.
The funds were made available within just a few weeks of the client’s decision to proceed, ensuring a swift and efficient process.
With access to over 500 lenders, Enness can offer bespoke lending solutions in complex scenarios such as these, drawing on our expertise in various asset classes including equities, crypto, bonds, and more.
