Retail Distribution

Leveraging on our ample experience in the developed -mostly European- capital markets, Udugu has created a transaction structure which allows retail investors to participate in IPOs without having a specific retail tranche

Such innovative structure has been double checked with specialist #1 legal advisors

Udugu structures the retail portion of the transaction and coordinates the participation of the retail online brokers with very little / no impact vs. the current IPOs timelines, features and structures

In order to ensure full distribution and therefore maximization of the transaction demand, Udugu cooperates with more than 15 brokers

Within the distributing brokers different profiles can be met: from former brokers turned into universal banks to discount brokers including, for example, family offices and private banking specialists

Capital Markets Interim Management Advisory

"Value added advisory only comes with efficient interaction with all involved parties while acting on the best interest of the client. And that is exactly what we offer”

Full transaction project management

We offer full coordination of the transaction, from the early design of the structure and the banks and legal firms selection, to the final stages, such as the allocation or the overallotment considerations.

But what really makes us different is the interim management approach. We get truly involved in your company, thinking and acting on your behalf as much as you want.  In our experience this step further is what provides real value added, and it is only achieved by the combination of:

  • Putting on the shoes of our clients and thinking on their behalf
  • Speaking the same language and understanding the motivation of all the agents involved in the transaction

Capital markets transactions are very complex processes and there are several agents to be coordinated

  • In addition to the early banks selection process, the daily management of the full set of banks, including the Glo-Cos, is very time consuming, especially due to the large pool of fees pending to be allocated through the underwriting quota and the variable commissions

  • They are the closest agent to the company and their role is fully compatible (and actually it works very well) with someone within the company leading the offering

  • From the selection of both company and underwriters’ legal counsels (both are typically paid by the issuer) to the daily interaction with the former ones during the preparation of documents

  • Obviously, they are independent, but given their utmost relevance, it is worth to liaise with them as soon as possible and maximize useful interaction

  • Typically, the usual auditor of the company is in charge of the transaction, but very often a selection process open for new contenders is opened

  • Although not strictly needed, its affordable cost and very convenient logistic support can make its participation in the offering advisable

  • Often contracted to cover positions related to the offering and the implicit structural changes, such as the Investor Relations area or, especially, the new members to be included on the Board of Directors

  • Other potential agents includes speaker trainers (not that common, but sometimes very useful); or PR and communications agencies, which have limited interaction purely related to the transaction but quite useful as well

“Our unparalleled experience allows us to provide with focused services in key areas, such as marketing for the transaction or interaction with investors”

Focused tailor-made advisory

Despite our integrated approach we can offer as well tailor-made partial services, such as advisory in some specific areas, including:

  • Marketing strategy, focusing on the transaction strategy and its implementation in the marketing documents
  • Investors knowledge, from selection to allocation, including interaction during the IPO process
  • Third party procurement, such as:
    • Roadshow coordination
    • Printers
    • Speaker training
    • Communication and PR agency

We implement the same methodology as in the full transaction project management: an interim management approach in which we get involved as much as the client requires.
