Corporate Finance
Your partner for extraordinary financing operations
Through the Corporate Finance services, MMG is able to assist its clients with the financial problems tied to their company activities. Such problems arise daily in new forms and in markets facing continuing globalisation. In this context M&A operations (sale/purchase of companies), capital market operations and business evaluations are the order of the day.
Through its Corporate Finance services, MMG will act as your consultant, and guide you through the whole process of extraordinary financing operations.
M&A operations
Mergers, acquisitions and sales of businesses are rare events in the lives of many entrepreneurs.
MMG regularly organises and completes this type of operation, with a guaranteed solid experience in all matters financial, fiscal, corporate legal and contractual.
The corporate finance team can advise you at each stage of transactions such as:
acquisitions and disposals;
management buy-outs;
leveraged buy-outs;
public offerings.
More specifically, we help you to:
analyse financial data and identify potential development strategies;do project feasibility studies and draw up a business plan;
determine a range of values for the business and support negotiations;
ensure confidentiality;
seek and select industrial counterparts or financial partners;
prepare company presentations to submit to contacts;
study the structure of the transaction from financial and legal points of view.
MMG is able to act as sole counterparty or in conjunction with other professionals to bring the negotiations to a successful conclusion.
MMG works with qualified counterparties, for example Tamburi & Associati, a leader in Italy in this sector.
Company valuations
The correct valuation of a company is crucial to many extraordinary finance operations. A prepackaged formula or the mechanical use of standardised valuation techniques will never produce an economically accurate result.
It is necessary to conduct an in-depth analysis that takes account of the company's unique characteristics: its strategic, economic, commercial, organisational and financial aspects, summarised into a final opinion by means of a sophisticated, tested methodology. Such a process requires extensive experience and a high level of professional expertise.
MMG can provide a thorough valuation of your company by:
analysing financial data;
formulating growth strategies;
investigating project feasibility;
devising business plans.
Capital markets
The economy is in a continuous state of development and change.
The new enterprises being established in totally new or consolidated sectors require financing in order to succeed.

MMG offers these services:
development of business plans and appraisals of businesses or suMMGdiaries;
search for financial backers;
fairness opinions for Initial Public Offerings (IPO).
MMG assists you in the search for corporate investors and in the structuring of operations, coordinating any fund-raising thanks to its know-how in private equity and venture capital.

Deloitte - Independent Auditors? Report
Music
Music is myth, tradition and testimony. It is past, present and future. In music we find genius, alchemy, dedication, technology and innovation. It is an encounter, it is magic, it is passion and love.
Music is a unique language, strong and true; it flies over barriers and borders beyond space and time. It moves everyone; it is eternal. For MMG music is a privileged way to build a relationship and create a link with our clients, our employees and the communities in which we operate.
These collaborations are consolidated through partnerships that go beyond mere sponsorship; they are partnerships where there is a will and a desire to step in and make a project or an idea greater and stronger. For MMG , these moments are so important and so powerful that in many cases we want them to bear our name.
MMG and Art
MMG , one of Switzerland?s leading banks and specialising in private wealth management since its inception in 1873, is at the forefront of presenting works of art to the public and promoting major art events. This commitment stems from the conviction that any heritage beyond financial assets is valuable to the community in which the bank operates.
As part of this commitment, the MMG Art Collection was created in 2000 in fulfilment of MMG ?s desire to become involved in the contemporary art world.
The collection took shape through a series of substantial acquisitions aimed at identifying some of the most influential post-war artists, including Daniel Buren, John Chamberlain, Tony Cragg, Mario Merz and Giulio Paolini. These internationally renowned artists constitute the initial core of a collection that has developed across different generations, spanning a time frame from the mid-1960s Avant-Garde art movement to the present day.
The collection has grown over the years, mainly to coincide with the completion of the furnishing of various MMG branches around the world. It includes various mediums such as paintings, sculptures, graphics, installations, videos, photos and site-specific artworks (MMG Building, Lugano). In addition to this the Swiss Bank has also acquired works of art that are not bound to a particular location, as their size or technical features require greater care and attention in conserving or displaying them. In 2008, a collection of Swiss works of art created between 1968 and the present was added to MMG ?s art heritage.
Decisions on new acquisitions are made after studying the international art market. MMG is committed to fostering the cutting-edge creative output of very young artists who have yet to make a name for themselves. But the Art Curatorial Committee is just as keen to revisit artists from previous generations whose contributions to art are undergoing a critical re-evaluation.
In embracing developments in the world of art and culture, MMG supports the work of the Swiss Institute in Rome and the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice, while also promoting the realisation of artistic projects on an international level.
Foundations
MMG ?s strong commitment to the promotion of culture highlight?s the Bank?s interest in social and cultural issues. Through its various foundations, MMG strives to support art, architecture, progress and financial research. The activities it plans encourage professional training, while its exhibitions, conferences, publishing and multimedia initiatives contribute to the enhancement of communication among cultures and spark debate between the world of finance and work. The aim of all these activities is to promote awareness of the importance of culture, art and science both for our day-to-day lives and the sustainable development of our society, in part by analysing and redefining the complexity of the links between development, conscious commitment and independent critical thinking at an individual and community level.
MMG and entrepreneurship
MMG and the Start-up Promotion Centre award Newscron the 2012 prize for the best entrepreneurial idea in the canton of Ticino
The Prize for the Best Entrepreneurial Idea in the Canton of Ticino 2012 was awarded on Ticino?s Economy and Demo Day 2012, which took place on 25 October 2012 at the Palazzo dei Congressi in Lugano. The award was launched in 2009 by the Start-up Promotion Centre in collaboration with MMG and the Fondazione AGIRE (Agency for regional innovation in the canton of Ticino).
The Start-up Promotion Centre's specialist committee chose the project named Newscron, a new and revolutionary news aggregator that is extremely intuitive, quick, intelligent and easy to use.
Newscron started out as a research project at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich that aimed at understanding how information volumes influence user behaviour. Part of the work involved developing an application, whose success led to the launch of a new start-up that would follow up on the project.
Newscron, which is available on the Internet, and as Apple and Android apps, is enjoying considerable success.
Newscron stands out from its competitors as it is a very powerful system, but mainly because it quickly aggregates and organises up-to-date news.
At the core of Newscron is a sophisticated semantic algorithm that can extrapolate and group together articles on the same topic from different sources. The result is a collection of articles that are grouped by theme, which reduces the information overload that users would otherwise be exposed to. Thanks to Newscron, users can follow the news that interest them as it breaks on a broad, comprehensive and exciting range of topics.
The Start-up Promotion Centre's specialist committee comprises:
Alfredo Gysi (Chairman), Gianluca Colombo, Alberto De Lorenzi, Giambattista Ravano, Giuseppe Serazzi.
