The Italian Chamber of Commerce and Industry for the UK offers a mentoring service to Italian companies, SME’s in particular, helping in their funds and capital raising exercise in the British and European market.
Although the Chamber cannot act as an “advisor”, it can assist in introducing the firm and facilitating contacts with potential investors. The Finance Desk can also assist investors in raising funds for both debt and equity investments as well as in identifying investment opportunities in Italian, British and European companies.
How we manage a project:
-
The management and the execution of a project follow the typical “hub and spoke” model. The Chamber reviews applications for raising financing, capital and for identifying investment opportunities jointly with the applicants. After a successful preliminary feasibility check, the Chamber identifies finance parties known to it rather than potential investment “targets” deemed appropriate for the specific transaction and helps the applicant in establishing a business relationship with them. The Finance Desk will follow the project implementation maintaining a supervisory and facilitation role.
Requirements:
-
Applicants must be Members of the Italian Chamber of Commerce and Industry for the UK, meet the requirements provided for by applicable Italian and English law on anti-money laundering, KYC and similar, require assistance on financial transactions that fall within the range of services offered by the Finance Desk and are approved by the Executive Committee of the Chamber.
