Management Buy-Out (MBO)

Last updated 02 October 2006

Description

To enable the current operating management and investors to acquire or to purchase a significant shareholding in the product line or business they manage. MBOs range from the acquisition of relatively small formerly family owned businesses to £100 million plus buy-outs. The amounts concerned tend to be larger than other types of financing, as they involve the acquisition of an entire business. They tend to account for around 15% of financings undertaken each year by BVCA member companies.
