Acquisition Finance

Rabobank’s Global Acquisition Finance & Sponsor Coverage is a leading arranger across the entire spectrum of the mid to large corporate market, with focus on the global Food & Agri market.

We arrange both our own transactions (part of which we syndicate to other institutions) and participate in transactions led by other banks. We facilitate structuring, execution and management of event-driven financing.

Our principal customers are financial sponsors who acquire a controlling interest in the target company by using funds under their management raised from third-party investors. Rabobank’s long-term approach is reflected by our hold policy, where we hold significant amounts of the debt issued by the bank’s customers to maturity.

Our roots as a Food & Agri bank put us in a unique position to provide our customers with in-depth knowledge and innovative ideas. And thanks to the expertise of other related departments, such as the Mergers & Acquisitions and Food & Agri Research, plus our intensive teamwork with these teams, we can provide you with full-service solutions.
