Villani Advisors has signed an agreement to advise and originate special private placements and private equity investments with several alternative investment groups.
Combined the group represents over USD6bn and has completed more than 250 transactions in over 45 countries.
Villani Advisors’ investment partners usually fund between USD2m and USD100m per transaction, do not require control and usually close within 45 days.
The firm seeks direct equity investments into listed and private companies with a capital-funding requirement to expand business growth and Ebitda.
Enzo Villani says: “Since launching in January 2010, we’ve established some key relationships to originate and advise several best-in-class middle-market alternative investment groups. What makes this relationship different is the ability to serve public companies with a financing option that works well in today’s capital markets.”
Since 2003, Villani has executed concurrent businesses including over USD350m in acquisitions in investor relations, digital media, financial communications, and proxy solicitation. Most recently, he was a founding member, executive vice president and chief strategy officer of DF King Worldwide, formerly Sage Holdings.
