MCR Capital Group, a boutique Canadian investment banking advisory firm will be focusing on bringing US private equity capital to Canadian firms.

Toronto, ON (PRWEB) April 27, 2004 --- MCR Capital Group, a boutique Canadian investment banking advisory firm will be focusing on bringing US private equity capital to Canadian firms.

The Company will focus on developing long-term relationships with Canadian enterprises that have a need for growth or acquisition financing in the form of management buyouts, leveraged buyouts or recapitalizations. MCR Capital Group believes that the Canadian market is an underserved market with respect to access to structured capital solutions for medium sized Canadian companies.

Mark Richter, Principal at MCR Capital Group states, The size of the private equity market in Canada is estimated at approximately CDN$50 billion. Canadas private equity markets as well as the leveraged buyout, mezzanine and venture capital segments have experienced strong growth and diversification over the past few years. Going forward, Canadas attractive economic fundamentals could offer attractive returns to American private equity funds."

The Canadian private equity market is not yet fully mature and competition for deals is less than what you would find in the United States," said Richter, This allows for significant upside return opportunity due to lower valuation multiples for Canadian firms versus their US counterparts."

MCR Capital Group is a Toronto-based financial advisory and investment banking firm specializing in the needs of medium sized Canadian companies as well as private equity firms and their portfolio companies. You can find our web site at www.mcrcapitalgroup.com
