In this way, Bain Capital would shape its consortium with a similar structure to Cinven, offering between 25-30% of the capital of ITP Aero to Spanish investors. In the case of the British fund, its structure is similar, since the manufacturer Aciturri has a 20% and a group of Basque investors agglutinated in the Arraigo fund, another 12%.

The only thing that squeezes it is the schedule promised to its shareholders.
