About Lincoln’s Capital Advisory Group (“CAG”)

Lincoln’s Capital Advisory team is a leading arranger of financing in the middle market, advising on a wide range of transactions, including acquisition financings for new platforms and add-ons, refinancings, dividend recaps, amendments and restructurings.

Much like a traditional M&A process, a capital advisory process involves in-depth industry and company research, identifying potential interested parties, preparing marketing materials and overseeing the diligence and negotiation process to arrive at a final agreement. While both processes are designed to facilitate successful transactions, our capital advisory engagements often move at a faster pace and can be more intricate, requiring the navigation of multiple potential solutions and variations. Additionally, we work with a broader range of investors, including those focused on lending, growth equity and distressed assets, which demand more nuanced messaging tailored to the specific needs of each audience.

Why CAG

As a summer analyst on the Capital Advisory team, you’ll benefit from the following opportunities:

Extensive, hands-on deal experience: Our team of 60 individuals closed 26 deals last year and has over 45 active and closed deals year-to-date. With our faster-paced processes in comparison to a traditional sell-side / buy-side process, you’ll gain more deal experience in less time while benefitting from collaborating across different industry groups. The group’s industry-agnostic nature will allow you to work with a diverse range of niche businesses, broadening your exposure across various sectors of interest.
Deeper exposure to private equity, private capital markets and leveraged finance: We work closely with private equity firms and interact with a wide array of capital providers, including commercial banks, private credit funds, mezzanine lenders and institutional investors. This will give you a deeper understanding of the full spectrum of private capital markets and how different capital structures can be leveraged.
