The right deal means nothing without the right capital behind it. Berngate works alongside buyers to structure and source the funding that gets transactions across the line — debt, equity, or a combination of both. We don't just find the deal. We help you fund it.
Start a conversation →Most buyers have a clear picture of the business they want to acquire. What holds them back is rarely the deal — it's the capital structure. Berngate connects acquisition-ready buyers with the right funding partners: senior lenders, private equity co-investors, mezzanine providers, and structured debt facilities.
We work through the capital stack to give your transaction the best chance of closing at the right terms — with committed capital in place before the conversation gets complicated.

Structured debt facilities from banks, non-bank lenders, and specialist acquisition finance providers. We identify and engage the right lenders for your deal profile, sector, and deal size — so your offer is backed by committed capital, not conditional on it. First in, first out. The backbone of most acquisitions.
Where equity is required — or where the right equity partner adds more than capital — we connect buyers with private equity groups, family offices, and co-investors actively seeking quality acquisition opportunities. Aligned capital, not just available capital. Partners who understand deal pace.
For deals that require flexibility in the capital stack, we source mezzanine and structured solutions that bridge the gap between senior debt and equity. The right structure for your deal, from providers who understand how acquisitions work and move at acquisition pace.
Capital shouldn't slow a deal down. Our process is built to move at acquisition pace — identifying the right providers, structuring the right facility, and putting committed capital behind your transaction before momentum is lost.
A direct conversation about the business you're acquiring, the deal structure, and the capital you need. We assess fit and identify which funding routes are most likely to move quickly and close cleanly — no forms, no gatekeeping, just a real conversation.
No generic introductions. We approach lenders and investors who are actively deploying capital in your sector and deal size — and who understand the pace and structure of acquisitions. Your deal lands with the right people from day one, positioned correctly for fast movement.
We work alongside you through term sheets, structuring, and commitment — translating lender requirements into deal-compatible terms so nothing slows the transaction. The capital side of your deal, managed with the same rigour as the deal itself.
The right funding, aligned to your timeline, in place when you need it. We hand off to your legal and advisory team once capital is committed — so the close happens on your terms, not on the lender's schedule.
If you have an acquisition in progress — or one you're ready to move on — start a conversation. We'll identify the right capital structure and connect you with the providers best placed to move at your pace. No obligation. No delay.
