ReSolve announces launch of £100m Investment Fund

Business and advisory practice, ReSolve has announced that it has partnered with European investment institution, RoundShield to significantly increase the company’s ability to assist businesses seeking support and investment.

ReSolve says that the agreement will seek opportunities across all sectors which include:

• Mid-cap investments up to approximately £20 million
• Unique, stressed or orphan situations
• Businesses with otherwise successful business models that are existentially threatened by COVID-19 and/or Brexit
• Businesses that need additional investment and support to achieve their business plans
• Businesses in need of rescue

Cameron Gunn, Senior Partner at ReSolve, said “The substantial increase in firepower which we have just achieved means we can bring strength and resources to good but, due to the circumstances, financially challenged businesses. We welcome all opportunities and look forward to helping the country’s SMEs, which are the backbone of the UK economy.”

Ken Browne, Partner at ReSolve, said “The current economic environment means there are many viable SME businesses which find themselves in an existential crisis due to the double whammy of COVID-19 and Brexit. ReSolve’s approach to such situations is always empathetic, practical and swift. We quickly invest cash and help implement a business plan thereby enabling management to stabilise the organisation, deliver solid performance, and build for the future, whether this involves divestment, rescue or redeveloping the business model. We take a hands-on approach and we are there to build value, not extract it.”
