Capital, structured
around your project.

From setting up a new plant to bridging a working capital gap, we structure the right mix of debt — matched to lender, tenure and cost — so the business never runs short of funds at the wrong moment.

Overview

A funding proposal succeeds or fails on how credible the numbers look to a credit officer. We prepare projections, CMA data and the supporting narrative in the form lenders expect — and we do not put forward numbers a business cannot defend eighteen months later.

The firm has long-standing working relationships across the banking sector. That means we know how a particular lender reads a proposal, what they will question, and which documents close those questions before they are asked.

Our involvement does not end at sanction. Disbursement conditions, security creation and the first year of monitoring are where facilities most often run into difficulty, and we stay with the file through all of it.

Common questions

Answers before you ask.

What is CMA data, and why does every bank ask for it?

Credit Monitoring Arrangement data is a standard format setting out past performance, projected performance, working capital assessment and fund flow. It is how a lender compares your proposal against its own internal norms. Because the format is standardised, weak assumptions are easy to spot — which is why the reasoning behind each projection matters far more than the presentation.

How much promoter contribution will be expected?

It varies with the facility, the sector and the lender's own policy, and is assessed alongside your existing debt and the security offered. We work this out at the planning stage rather than after an application is filed, because the answer often decides how a project is phased.

How long does sanction usually take?

For a complete proposal at a bank already familiar with the business, a few weeks is realistic; a new relationship or a large project takes longer. Delay is almost always documentation rather than decision-making, which is why we assemble the full set before submission instead of answering queries one at a time.

Should finance and subsidy be planned together?

Always. Several schemes are credit-linked, meaning the subsidy flows through the lending bank and depends on the term loan being structured correctly from the outset. Planning the two separately is the most common reason a business qualifies for finance but misses the incentive attached to it.
