Management Buy-In (MBI)

Financing an outside manager or management team to acquire a company. In a management buy-in (MBI), an external management team partners with a company with a management void. This could be a private company, a stand-alone company, or an orphaned division of a larger company. Again, managers retain operational control while holding significant equity.
