GLOBAL EQUITY INTERNATIONAL INC
DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES--(Marketwired - Oct 21, 2016) - Global Equity International, Inc. (
In common with the overall financial services sector, the micro fund management market is undergoing significant changes. Our Company would like to take advantage of these changes and acquire a significant selection of International and United Kingdom based Financial Advisory Firms with funds under management and via acquisition create a subsidiary under one efficient and cost effective umbrella that will provide long term revenue for Global Equity International Inc. and its fully owned subsidiaries.
A "Fund Division" of our Company, Global Equity, will provide long term stability via revenue, attractive value by paying up to three times profits and short term income from both the "Fund Division" and our Company due to our ability to then self-finance deals and ultimately "Close the circle."
Major Keys to Success:
- Extensive and deep knowledge of the "Fund Management" sector.
- 25 years of experience within management of this type of business.
- Close relationships with existing target companies to be acquired.
- Timing.
- Broadened product portfolio for clients (cross border opportunities).
- Reduced General and Administrative expenses once consolidated.
- Management previously created a similar company with US$2.2 Billion of Funds under Management.
To date we have identified four Funds under Management that we are interested in acquiring. The total amount of money under management would be approximately US$200,000,000 and total annual net profits vary between 1% and 1.5% of the fund value. These regulated and licensed Financial Advisory Firms with Funds under Management can be acquired for small multiples and with certain amounts paid up-front and the balance as a form of buy-out over time which will end up being self-funded from the revenues we intend to acquire. Each of these target Funds are based in the UK and are highly regulated by the UK FCA (https://www.fca.org.uk/).
Once we have acquired at least two of the Financial Advisory Firms with Funds under Management that we have on our shortlist, within 12 months, we will create a "Global Equity Special Opportunities Fund" that will be established in a regulated market thus allowing us, over time, to move certain pockets of money from the Funds under Management we acquire into our own fund thus allowing us to finance our own clients and by virtue increase the overall profitability, speed of transaction and deal making capability of the group.
Peter Smith, CEO of Global Equity International Inc., said, "Over the last 6 years we have slowly but surely built a professional team and a solid and very substantial network around us. Now the time has come to take the next step in order to "close the circle" on our business model. I travelled to the United Kingdom two weeks ago and met with certain significant people within the sector with a view of posing to them our idea of commencing an acquisition trail on various UK Regulated Funds. The idea was received with great enthusiasm, so much so that I and my CFO, Enzo Taddei, will be travelling back to the UK this coming Monday to follow up on my previous conversations and also to meet with all four potential acquisition targets with a view to agree on the basic terms of acquisition with each of them, and to set a timeframe to commence our comprehensive due diligence. Also I have spoken to various of our financial partners about assisting us to source the funding required, initially via debt only, to acquire the various targeted Financial Advisory Firms with Funds under Management and we have received an extremely positive response. We are feeling very bullish about getting these Funds acquired in the next 3 to 4 months. I personally have extensive experience in this type of business hence I know how profitable it can be. I also know that with a little "TLC" we can make the net profits of these funds substantially higher in time."
