The Eaton Group is
a multi-national investment-banking consulting organization which has been assisting its
corporate clients achieve their capital raising objectives since 1979.

Our Mission
To provide each client with a comprehensive
choice of custom tailored domestic and International capital raising strategies.
Our expertise ranges from IPO's, to development capital, to strategic alliances
as required to meet their
respective growth and financial objectives.

Capital Funding Needs
All companies, large or small, constantly require funding of various types.
There are numerous funding strategies a company might wish to pursue if they
become aware of the possibilities. There are an almost limitless number of consultants, brokers,
commercial, investment, merchant banks, insurance companies, pension funds,
government sponsored programs and other
institutions that can provide, or arrange to provide, funds within the context of an
agreed funding strategy. The Eaton Group's major strength has been its
experience in raising funds from all of the above referenced situations.
This has been accomplished through our ongoing international contacts and
experience with this multiplicity of available institutions.
The current inter-relationships between widely dispersed international markets makes it
nearly impossible for a companys traditional advisors (accountants, attorneys,
consultants) to provide a company an in-depth understanding of the numerous international
options that might be worthy of detailed consideration. In addition to funding
options that have been historically available such as; Venture Capital, Commercial Bank
and Public Listings there now exists a multiplicity of national, state and international options that are
available to even the smallest company (start ups included). The Eaton
Group is recognized as having a thorough knowledge of the operating
protocols in each of the international markets it serves.
Companies tend to automatically select a "name" firm (Investment Bank) to
handle their funding needs without giving proper consideration to the fact that numerous
other attractive relationships might be available to them. The Eaton Group has
the ability to critically analyze the characteristics of your company and growth
strategy and then formulate a custom tailed funding program without constraints
as to a particular method of fund raising. This eliminates the need for
companies to expend time and effort researching the vast spectrum of financial
possibilities.
Capital Funding Considerations
Issues that should always be examined include, but are
not limited to:
 | Will the potential financial partner provide the company a variety of logical funding
options with comparative pros & cons being clearly set forth ? |
-
 | Determining the comparative valuations of the potential partners clients with respect to
the valuation of all companies within their industry ? |
-
 | How have client company share prices reflected the companys value after the
financial partners warrants and or stock options have expired ? |
-
 | Recognizing that market valuations are dominated by fund managers and investing
institutions how does the financial industry rate a potential financial partners
industry research and "after market" support? This is extremely important
considering individual analysts change firms with distressing
frequency. |
-
 | With respect to project financing, has a critical comparison been made to considerations
such as; foreign distribution of public or private debt issues, the
availability of non traditional third party (world bank, commercial, sovereign) guarantees
that can serve to keep costs to a minimum, etc. |
Suggested Course of Action
Eaton requires a meeting with the principals of your company
to be held at the nearest Eaton office to your base of operations before
entering into a formal relationship with you.
(Any information received is kept in the strictest
confidence.)
Upon the execution of an engagement agreement, Eaton will
perform its own on-site due diligence
investigation. Thereafter, Eaton will coordinate all relevant aspects of a
project from inception to completion.
