Our Services
Growth Capital
Growth capital refers to flexible financing provided to established, rapidly growing companies seeking funds to scale operations, enter new markets, expand product lines, or pursue strategic initiatives, without requiring a change in ownership or control. Unlike early-stage venture capital or full buyouts, growth capital supports businesses that have already demonstrated traction and revenue but need additional resources to accelerate their development. We specialize in SME transactions, delivering tailored growth capital solutions to small and medium-sized enterprises.
Mergers and Acquistions
Cambio adopts a long-term, holistic approach to our clients’ acquisition initiatives. We collaborate closely with clients to develop a comprehensive framework of acquisition criteria, then leverage our extensive network to systematically identify, evaluate, and prioritize potential target companies in alignment with those criteria and strategic objectives. From initial outreach through letter of intent presentation and negotiation, and continuing through due diligence, legal documentation, and final closing, Cambio provides expert guidance and end-to-end management of the entire acquisition process.
Sale of a Business
Selling a business is a significant event to any business owner. Cambio recognizes that every sale engagement is unique and depends on the specific needs and objectives of the shareholders. While every sale engagement is conducted differently, creating value for our clients also requires that we conduct all sale engagements with:
- The strictest level of discretion and confidentiality to maintain and protect the client's relationship with customers, vendors and employees
- Understanding the financial and key valuation considerations at the highest possible level to advise our client and communicate to potential buyers
- Extensive industry and buyer research, allowing us to understand the transaction and value proposition from all perspectives
- Understanding our client and its future potential and communicating this understanding to the targeted audience to maximize value
Shareholder Buyouts
Transactions where a shareholder is being bought out by other owners, or where management purchases an equity stake are particularly attractive to the capital markets. These buyouts are generally considered less disruptive to a business than M&A deals and have consistently performed well from an investment return standpoint. However, the fact that team members and partners are now potentially on opposite sides of a transaction calls for a increased sense of transparency, confidentiality, and negotiation.
Real Estate
Cambio offers specialized acquisition, bridge, and construction lending solutions for commercial real estate across Western Canada. Acquisition financing enables businesses and investors to purchase stabilized income-producing properties such as office buildings, retail centres, industrial facilities, and multi-family assets with competitive terms and flexible structures. Bridge loans provide short-term, flexible capital to bridge transitional periods—such as property repositioning, lease-up, or pending permanent financing—allowing borrowers to act quickly on opportunities in dynamic Western Canadian markets. Construction lending supports new development and major renovation projects by delivering structured, draw-based financing tailored to project timelines, budgets, and milestones, with experienced oversight to manage risk throughout the construction phase. These tailored lending products are designed to meet the unique needs of developers, Indigenous-owned businesses, and organizations operating in Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba.
Indigenous Finance
Cambio delivers specialized Indigenous finance and corporate governance solutions designed to empower Indigenous-owned businesses and organizations that partner with Indigenous communities. We provide expert guidance in negotiating contracts, structuring complex deals, securing growth capital, and optimizing operational frameworks to ensure long-term sustainability and cultural alignment. Our comprehensive support encompasses strategic corporate governance, financial structuring, and access to tailored financing, enabling Indigenous enterprises and their partners to achieve economic growth while maintaining control, protecting community interests, and advancing reconciliation through responsible business development.
