Leveraging Your Performance

Aether Financial Services, the leading agency in France for unitranche financing, is the trusted partner of private equity and debt funds. We orchestrate complex transactions such as LBOs from closing to the end of the financing period, acting as facility agent, security agent, payment agent, or escrow agent.

M&A Execution Engineering

Without positioning itself as a financial advisor, Aether FS plays a key role in transaction execution. With over 10 years of expertise in debt instruments and process management, we provide decisive operational expertise in executing M&A deals, especially during critical moments such as closing.

Post-Merger Execution
  1. At Closing:
    • Closing Flow Management: We ensure smooth execution between all stakeholders.
    • Preparation: We open bank accounts, collect IBAN details, prepare the Funds Flow, and pre-enter payments.
    • Execution and Payment Tracking: We carry out payments and send confirmations (Swift).
  2. Post-Closing:
    • Long-Term Support: We act as escrow agent to secure payments related to earn-out clauses.
    • SPA Coordination: We manage the SPA and its signatories after closing.
Mastery of Complex Transactions

Aether FS’s expertise is especially valuable in multi-jurisdictional and highly complex transactions: multiple sellers, mixed payments (cash/shares), escrows, strong guarantees… Our tailored approach adapts to each deal, regardless of its size or structure.
