Some of the unique solutions developed by members of our team in the past are:

• Contractor-led extended payment terms – advised several large contracting firms across the region and developed templates that allowed extensions of payment terms to the project owners. This helped the clients win bids as they were providing financial relief through term loans to the project owners.
• Supplier-led term loan – arranged a non-recourse term loan of AED 500m that helped the company win a major supply contract as they were providing financial relief to the buyer.
• Infrastructure development financial advisory – Advising a regional authority mandated to develop the mass transport system of a large city on the various alternative financing options ranging from contractor led, ECA, PPP, bonds etc.
• Rent to own program for Developers – Advised developers and banks to develop a structure for a “limited recourse” bank facility through which the developers could offer post-handover payment plans to end buyers and sell inventory of apartments.
• Cash flow backed loan restructuring – helped a developer restructure development loans for residential and hospitality assets by re profiling them in line with the expected cash flows over the tenor of the loan.
• Distress real estate deal – facilitated a large real estate transaction by identifying an institutional buyer that purchased a distressed real asset pool from a bank with stapled financing.
• Structured Trade Finance – structured several prepayment and pre export structured finance deals for producers across the region.
