Article Abstract:
Banque Indosuez is happy to continue its strategy of focusing on quality medium-sized deals in the UK buyout market, unlike other foreign banks which seek to arrange large amounts of debt for the biggest deals. However, Indosuez's strategy puts it up against the UK's leading clearing bank buyout lenders, and it is now fighting hard to strengthen its acquisition finance profile. Indosuez is determined that the competition will not force it to concentrate on offering lower prices, but instead focuses on its strengths and its different approach compared to its rivals.
