Riva y García Financial Group

Riva y García Financial Group (Grupo Financiero Riva y García) is an independent Spanish financial group headquartered in Barcelona. It operates through three main business lines: Corporate Finance, Private Equity and Private Banking (Banca Privada). The group positions itself on principles of trust, independence, proximity and professionalism, and focuses on middle-market transactions involving both listed and private Spanish companies. The Corporate Finance division provides financial and strategic advisory services. Its activities include capital markets work such as initial public offerings (OPV), capital increases (OPS), convertible bond issues, splits and reverse splits, takeover bids (OPA), delisting processes and value management. It also advises on mergers and acquisitions (M&A), management buy-outs and buy-ins (MBO/MBI), divestments, private market debt and equity issues, and debt restructuring and refinancing. In the area of financial strategy, the team offers long-term financial planning, independent expert reports, business plans and viability studies, expert reports for litigation and arbitration, transfers between partners, related-party transactions and impairment testing. The group traces its first Corporate Finance transaction to 1995, when it advised Service Point Solutions on a capital increase in the securities market. Since then it has continued to build experience in middle-market operations. The official website carries a copyright notice covering 1999–2026, indicating the group's formal establishment in 1999. Riva y García remains a privately held, independent financial group serving Spanish corporate and private clients.
