Financial structures built around business and project needs.

We design the financial structure, considering debt or equity, tenor, risk allocation (including senior, mezzanine and junior positions), collateral, covenants, cash-flow waterfalls and the arrangements required to ring-fence assets and define investor rights.

Capital architecture and governance specialists, supported by legal and regulatory advisors.

Financial structures are designed at the holding-company level, with input from institutional risk committees. Where required, legal ring-fencing arrangements are established before the structure is assigned to an appropriate vehicle.

We identify the delivery vehicle or partner appropriate to the structure, taking account of asset class, regulatory requirements and jurisdiction:

Our strategic partnerships team, supported by technology and infrastructure specialists.

Delivery is transferred to the relevant group platform or independent partner through an agreed contractual arrangement.

We identify and coordinate potential institutional capital sources, including pension funds, sovereign wealth funds, private debt funds, family offices and development finance institutions (DFIs). Each institution operates within its own investment mandate, risk parameters and return expectations.

BWCI’s capital architecture capability, supported by institutional relationships and relevant group companies or independent partners.

Capital participation is structured through appropriate institutional arrangements and, where applicable, regulated fund vehicles. The allocation and segregation of capital are defined by the legal and contractual terms of each arrangement.

Capital is deployed in accordance with the agreed financial structure. Illustrative uses may include financing trade invoices, acquiring equipment or funding construction milestones. Disbursements are subject to the applicable contractual terms, controls and verification requirements.

Authorised operating subsidiaries and regulated partner banks, using controlled disbursement systems.

Disbursements are executed through appropriately authorised operating entities, licensed partners or special-purpose vehicles (SPVs), in accordance with the relevant contractual and regulatory arrangements.

We monitor the performance of each structure, including cash flows, invoice payment cycles, collateral values and debt-service coverage. This information helps assess the validity of the original assumptions and informs subsequent governance, risk management and structuring decisions.

Our technology and infrastructure capability, supported by performance-reporting systems, collateral management agents (CMAs) and independent auditors.

Platform data informs holding-company governance, risk management and the development of lending criteria.

Structures that demonstrate appropriate performance may be adapted for similar sectors, supply chains or regions. Each application remains subject to the relevant commercial, legal, regulatory and operational requirements.

Teams across the Financial Engine collaborate to support expansion.

Expansion takes place through platform growth and, where required, the establishment of appropriate licences in new jurisdictions.
