About CAPIA

Since 2013, we have been providing investment banking financial services to successful entrepreneurs, corporations and financial investors on business divestitures, acquisitions, JV formation (M&A), capital raising, debt structuring and strategic advisory. We have a strong presence in Latin America and particularly Peru, where we have become the most active financial advisor with over 45 transactions closed to date.

We provide independent financial advisory services to help family-owned businesses, corporate, institutional, and high-net-worth clients navigate the structuring and execution of complex financial transactions that create real value. We draw on our extensive global experience, deep local market knowledge and global reach to deliver customized advice for highly impactful and transformative transactions. We differentiate ourselves through a culture of excellence, working with absolute confidentiality and a relentless focus on tangible results, fully aligned with our clients' goals.

Global
Reach

We have offices in Peru and the U.S. and have successfully executed transactions across nearly every country in Latin America. Our cross-border M&A practice thrives on strong institutional relationships with strategic and financial investors from North America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and across South America. We proactively engage private equity firms and sovereign wealth funds in our processes to ensure our clients gain maximum exposure and access to high-potential investors.

Financial Advisory

Our Services

Sell-Side Advisory

Using our deep local market knowledge, superior execution and a vast global network of financial and strategic buyers, we structure and execute high-professional sale processes that attract significant global interest, increase value and attain our client’s financial objectives.

Buy-Side Advisory

Our experience in prospecting markets, opening dialogues with potential counterparties and understanding local markets and culture allows us to provide our clients with unique, bilateral negotiations with targets that result in successful off-market transactions.

Debt Financing

We help clients obtain debt financing from local and global financial institutions, private debt markets and capital markets. We structure debt raising processes that are aligned with our clients’ cash flow profile, and at the most attractive conditions.

Capital Raising

Whether equity (or semi-equity) is needed to fund growth, strengthen the capital structure or add a new partner to strengthen the business, we provide tailor made advise and top-tier process execution to identify, evaluate and maximize value for our clients.

Strategic Advisory

We help find solutions to complex financial challenges through a consultative process that focuses on delivering tailor-made advise through the lens of value benchmarking. We seek to establish strategies and an action plan that can maximize value creation and sustainability.

Complex Negotiations

We use our finance skills, market knowledge and value-oriented analytics to seek the best possible negotiation strategy to resolve conflicts with vendors, debtors, creditors or family members such that value is preserved.
