Debt Advisory and Financial Close

Debt Advisory and Financial Close, on the Issuer's Side

We advise companies that own real assets on how they borrow: financial close for concessions and projects, refinancing of maturities, first private credit facilities, bank debt and bonds. We sit on your side of the table, never the lender's or the investor's. We lend nothing and place nothing.

When Companies Call Us

Six situations where the company's side of the table needs its own adviser. Composite examples, not client results.

Concession

Financial Close of a Concession

A signed contract, a minimum paid-in capital, environmental and lender conditions, and a deadline measured in business days. We run the bridge financing with several banks in parallel while the long-term package is structured, so the first works certificate is not waiting for the money.

Project Finance Readiness

Before the first lender meeting: the financial model lenders will test, the data room in the order they read it, the security package, and the answers to the questions that stall a credit committee.

Six Things We Do on Every Mandate

The same work, whether it is a concession, a refinancing or a first private credit facility.

Lender Readiness

The financial model, the data room, the reporting package and the controls, ready before the first meeting.

Every Source Compared

Banks, private credit funds, development lenders, bonds and digital formats, side by side.

All-in Cost, Including Currency

Rate, fees, hedging, covenants and prepayment, in the currency the company earns.

Terms Benchmarked

What comparable companies pay today, so the negotiation starts from the market, not from the first offer.

Process Run in Parallel

Several lenders at once, on the contract's calendar, with counsel and placing agents coordinated.

Close and After

Signing, disbursement, covenant reporting and the finance operations that keep the asset financed on good terms.

The Side of the Table We Take

What we do and, just as clearly, what we do not do.

We Advise the Borrower or Issuer

The company and its counsel negotiate; where the package includes securities, a licensed placing agent runs the placement. We earn nothing from any lender or investor, so our comparison of sources is the one you would make yourself with more time.

Where the financing needs a lender-grade reporting package or a data foundation, our Finance Operations and AI line builds it, with our technology partner ProsperitasAI under our management: an affiliated company under common ownership with GSC, disclosed in every engagement, and yours to exclude.

  • We do not lend
  • We do not place securities
  • We do not negotiate in the company's name
  • We take nothing from lenders or investors
  • We hold no equity in the providers we evaluate

Frequently Asked Questions

The questions companies ask before they mandate an adviser on their side.

Do you place debt or find investors?

No. We advise the company. Banks and investors are approached by the company with our preparation, and any securities placement is run by a licensed placing agent. We earn nothing from lenders or investors.

How are you different from the arranging bank?

The arranging bank is paid when its own facility closes. We are paid by the company and earn nothing from any lender, so the comparison of sources and the benchmark of terms are not shaped by who wins the mandate.

What does lender readiness include?

The financial model lenders will test, a data room in the order they read it, the reporting package and the controls behind it, and the company's answers to the questions that stall a credit committee.

How long does a financial close mandate take?

It runs on the contract's calendar, typically six to twelve months from mandate to disbursement. A refinancing comparison takes four to eight weeks.

Do you work with digital or tokenized formats?

Yes, as one option in the comparison. Where a tokenized format or digital cash lowers the all-in cost or the settlement risk, it is compared on the same terms as the rest. Where it does not, we say so.
