Secure the Facility Before the Capital Is Needed

A delayed draw term loan provides access to a committed amount during an agreed availability period. The borrower draws individual tranches when qualifying expenditures or transactions occur.

We assess the funding schedule, structure the facility and prepare the transaction for placement with suitable banks, debt funds and private credit providers.
