"Financely structured a senior secured facility for our sponsor platform that was genuinely asset-led rather than sponsor-led. They mapped the collateral pool, including receivables, equipment, and contract rights, and built a structure with clear bridge-to-term mechanics and conservative advance rates. The result was non-dilutive capital that respected our hold period and existing lender relationships. Their documentation quality and ability to articulate the credit story to the right private credit counterparties made the difference between a term sheet and a signed commitment."

We work with sponsors, principals, borrowers, asset owners, project companies, commodity traders, acquirers, developers, fund managers, and authorised representatives who have real documents, credible economics, identifiable repayment sources, and budget for a paid financing process.
Debt structuring, lender positioning, transaction packaging, and financing process support for sponsors with collateral, contracts, cash flow, permits, offtake, PPAs, PSAs, LOIs, APAs, EPC files, technical reports, reserve reports, rent rolls, or operating assets.

Request A QuoteWhat Serious Sponsors Should Have Before Requesting Terms

|---|---|---|

| Commercial Real Estate Debt | PSA, rent roll, NOI, appraisal or valuation support, lease abstracts, tenant rollover, sponsor equity, DSCR, LTV, LTC, and exit plan. | Bridge loan, acquisition debt, refinance, mezzanine coordination, bridge-to-perm facility. |

We decline weak files early. Broker chains, no-principal access, success-fee-only requests, no-collateral mandates, vague SBLC monetization language, proof-of-funds misuse, missing KYC, and transactions with no credible repayment source are poor fits for this process.
How Financely Structures And Places Sponsor Finance Mandates
Our process is built around lender decisioning. The work starts with transaction screening, then moves into credit structuring, documentation, lender mapping, diligence control, term sheet comparison, and closing coordination where applicable.
1. Transaction Screening
We review the sponsor, authority, requested amount, use of proceeds, repayment source, collateral, documents, timeline, compliance risk, and likely capital route.
2. Credit Structure
We size debt capacity, define collateral coverage, assess DSCR or cash flow support, map covenants, identify facility type, and position the risk for lender review.
3. Lender-Ready Package
We prepare the transaction memorandum, executive summary, financial model outputs, document checklist, KYC/KYT file, lender Q&A support, and data room index.
4. Capital Source Mapping
We identify relevant banks, private credit funds, specialty lenders, trade finance providers, project finance desks, and capital partners based on the mandate.
5. Term Sheet Management
We compare pricing, covenants, security, amortization, tenor, prepayment terms, conditions precedent, lender fees, and closing requirements.
6. Execution Control
We manage diligence requests, lender responses, documentation flow, adviser coordination, closing checklist, and next-step discipline through the financing process.
Execution focus: We prepare each mandate for credit review by organizing the borrower file, transaction economics, collateral package, repayment analysis, lender questions, and documentation path before approaching capital providers.
