Structured finance: when a plain term loan isn’t enough

Not every funding need fits a vanilla term loan. Structured finance shapes the instrument around the reality of the business — its cash flows, its assets or its situation — to reach a quantum, tenor or risk that standard debt can’t.

Common structures

Why structure matters

The right structure can lower cost, extend tenor, match repayment to cash generation and reduce dilution. The wrong one over-leverages the business or chokes its working capital.

The trade-offs

Structured instruments carry more documentation, tighter covenants and often higher headline cost. They earn their place when standard debt simply can’t reach what the situation needs.

We design and place these structures across banks, NBFCs, AIFs and private credit — matched to what the business can actually service.
