Three structures, one origination desk. Below is how each works, how we're compensated, and what a mandate needs to be ready for institutional financing.
Bridge, working capital, long-term & trade finance
We structure and place financing across bridge, working capital, long-term, and trade finance — sized, priced, and documented to match the institution funding it, whether that's an ECA, a DFI, a government institution, or a private lender.
Non-recourse funding through a bankruptcy-remote SPV
We structure a true sale of receivables, trade finance assets, and ECA- or DFI-backed loans into a bankruptcy-remote special purpose vehicle — converting a working capital asset into non-recourse, investment-grade funding without individual obligor underwriting.
Covenant relief, standstill terms & lender realignment
When a facility falls out of covenant, the priority is stopping value erosion — not standing on formalities. We step in alongside borrower and lender to renegotiate terms, align a syndicate or multi-lender group, and rebuild a credit profile that can carry forward.
Our fee structure is aligned with getting your mandate funded — not with billing hours.
Upon accepting a mandate, we charge a fee covering initial screening, structuring, and preparation of the transaction for presentation to financing institutions. This fee varies by transaction complexity and is agreed in writing before work begins.
The majority of our compensation is results-based, paid only upon disbursement of funds — not upon signing, approval, or term sheet. If the financing doesn't fund, we don't collect this portion. Major institutional funders don't release capital until disbursement; we structure our own compensation the same way.
Fee percentages are scaled by transaction size and complexity and confirmed for each mandate before engagement begins. We're happy to walk through specifics on an initial call.
Being direct about fit saves everyone time. Here's what we look for before taking on a mandate.
Documentation and readiness expectations differ by product. Here's what to have ready.
| Product | What we'll need |
|---|---|
| Securitizations | A seasoned, performing pool of receivables or loans with historical performance data, and servicing capability for the underlying assets. |
| Working Capital / Short-Term Loans | Current financials, a defined borrowing base, and a clear short-term use of funds. |
| Long-Term / Project Financing | Audited financials, multi-year projections, and full project-level due diligence — feasibility, offtake, and construction or completion risk where applicable. |
| Trade Finance | Transaction-specific documentation — purchase orders, sales contracts, or offtake agreements — and, where ECA-eligible, documentation supporting export content. |
| Restructuring / Credit Workouts | Current financials showing the covenant breach or distress, the existing credit agreement, and a preliminary recovery or workout plan. |
Every mandate goes through institutional-grade review before it's presented to a financing partner.
Audited financial statements — historical financials with an independent audit opinion, covering the relevant reporting periods.
Financial projections — forward-looking statements supporting the repayment or performance case, with underlying assumptions documented.
Corporate & legal structure — ownership, governance, and any cross-border structuring relevant to the transaction.
KYC / AML & source of funds — standard verification required by ECAs, DFIs, and government institutions.
Asset & collateral review — underlying receivables, loan pools, or project assets, as applicable to the product.
Regulatory & sector review — permits, licenses, and compliance relevant to the sector and jurisdiction.
