FH FINANCEHOLD SA holds long-term capital positions in companies with durable models. We structure lending and participations with the discipline of a Swiss holding — visible terms, traceable logic, no theatre.
Direct equity and mezzanine stakes in established mid-market companies with proven unit economics. Minority positions, defined governance rights, and a documented path to exit.
Senior and unitranche facilities secured against real assets, contracts, or stable cash flows. Tenors matched to the underlying business cycle rather than a credit template.
Short-dated facilities for acquisitions, ownership changes, and restructurings where timing determines outcomes. Daily interest, no early-exit penalty, refinancing path documented up front.
A holding company is only as credible as the positions it can defend. We have never signed a facility we could not explain in one page — and we do not intend to start.
Half a percentage point on a CHF 5M facility over seven years equals roughly CHF 175,000 in extra interest. One hour of negotiation repays itself many times over.
Most mid-market defaults trace to mismatched repayment schedules, not headline rates. Structure that mirrors the cash cycle prevents more failures than a lower coupon ever will.
Companies with pre-arranged capital close acquisition processes roughly four times more often. Readiness is a strategic asset, not an afterthought.
Every FH facility ships with a plain-language term summary alongside legal documents. If a condition cannot be explained in one page, we rewrite it.
Every stage ends with something in writing. You will never wonder what we are waiting for, or where your file stands.
A 25-minute call to map the business, the financing need, and any timing constraints. No commitment, no documents required.

Financial review, collateral assessment, and structural analysis together. Most decisions issued within 72 hours of complete documentation.
Legal formalities completed and funds released on the agreed schedule. Plain-language summary of final terms accompanies every signed instrument.
