Structured Project Finance & Debt Placement Services

Structured Project Finance & Debt Placement Services

This service is aimed at sponsors that need a full structured project finance solution for a defined asset or portfolio. Typical situations include greenfield or brownfield projects with clear technical scope, contracted or contracted-in-principle revenues, and capital expenditure that cannot be covered by a standard corporate facility.

The focus is one project or portfolio at a time. The goal is to move from a technical and commercial concept to a bankable structure that lenders and long-term investors can assess, with a clear capital stack, risk allocation, and documentation roadmap.

Structured project finance and debt placement for energy, infrastructure, and industrial projects from approximately USD 50m to 500m+ total capital cost. Engagement fees from USD 65,000, with a success fee on committed debt and quasi equity arranged through this service. Payment by bank transfer only.

Which Projects Fit This Service

Project Types We Focus On

  • Renewable energy, power, and storage projects with defined sites and grid or offtake arrangements.
  • Transport, logistics, and essential infrastructure with long-term concession, availability, or lease frameworks.
  • Industrial, processing, and midstream assets with contracted feedstock and offtake, or strong demand visibility.
  • Total project capital expenditure generally between USD 50m and 500m+, on a single-asset or portfolio basis.
  • Jurisdictions where recognised project finance lenders, ECAs, or DFIs are active or can reasonably be approached.

Sponsor Readiness Criteria

  • Project company or SPV identified, with shareholding and governance structure outlined.
  • Key permits and land or site rights substantially in place, or with a documented path and timetable.
  • Term sheets or heads of terms under discussion for PPA, offtake, concession, or capacity contracts.
  • Base financial model prepared, covering capex, opex, DSCR metrics, and standard sensitivities.
  • Evidence of sponsor development capital already deployed and a clear view on equity commitments.

What We Do On A Structured Project Finance Engagement

Once the engagement fee is received, the file is treated as a live project finance transaction. The work is directed toward a coherent structure and information pack that can be reviewed by credit and investment committees.

  • Review of technical, commercial, legal, ESG, and environmental documentation supplied by the sponsor and its advisers.
  • Assessment of revenue model, cost base, and key risks, including construction, operation, counterparty, currency, and country risk.
  • Design of the capital structure, including senior debt, possible mezzanine or holdco layers, and equity contributions.
  • Indicative debt sizing and covenant framework based on cash flow projections and reference points from comparable transactions.
  • Outline of security package, accounts structure, reserve mechanisms, and core intercreditor concepts.
  • Preparation of a concise project finance memorandum and summary financial outputs in a lender-friendly format.
  • Targeted approaches to banks, ECAs, DFIs, and private credit funds with a track record in the relevant sector and region.
  • Support through indication and term sheet stages, including adjustments to structure as feedback is received.

This service runs alongside legal, technical, tax, and other specialist advisers. The focus is capital structure, credit case, and lender engagement, not replacing independent professional advice.

Fees, Parameters, And Process

Pricing is set out in advance so sponsors can decide quickly whether this structured project finance service matches their requirements.

  • Project size: generally USD 50m to 500m+ in total capital cost; smaller schemes may be better suited to simpler bilateral facilities.
  • Debt sizing: guided by sector norms, projected cash flows, and lender appetite, tested across several leverage and downside cases.
  • Engagement fee: from USD 65,000 for projects in the USD 50m to 150m range; typically USD 85,000 to 140,000 for larger or more complex work.
  • Success fee: 1.5 to 2.5 percent on new committed debt and quasi equity secured through this service.
  • Payment method: bank transfer only, against invoice. Work starts once the engagement fee is received.
  • Refunds: the engagement fee is fully earned once review and structuring work begin and is not refundable.
  • Timelines: initial analysis and structuring usually require several weeks; market approaches, indications, and term sheet work typically run over a number of months.

Structured Project Finance: FAQ

Can you support projects that are still at early concept stage
This service is designed for projects that have moved beyond concept and have permits, site rights, and revenue frameworks at least partly in place, along with a base financial model. For ideas at a very early stage, a lighter development-focused engagement usually makes more sense than a full project finance process.
How is this different from your equity gap and bridge funding service
The equity gap and bridge service focuses on closing a defined shortfall in an existing capital stack. Structured project finance covers the broader design of the project capital structure and the senior and quasi-equity funding process. In some cases both services are relevant at different points; in others only one is appropriate.
Do you work with a single lender or run a competitive process
The approach depends on project size, sector, jurisdiction, and sponsor preference. In some situations a small club of lenders and agencies with strong sector experience is the most practical route. In others, a broader set of approaches is appropriate. The service focuses on a targeted list of parties that can realistically support the ticket size and risk profile.
Can you guarantee that project finance debt will close on specific terms or by a fixed date
No. Project finance outcomes depend on lender appetite, sector views, country risk, internal processes, and market conditions at the time. The service is built to present a clear structure and coherent information set, but pricing, structure, and timing are set by third party institutions, not by Financely.
What should sponsors prepare before starting a structured project finance engagement
Sponsors should expect to provide a current financial model, technical studies, permits and approvals status, site and title documentation, draft or signed revenue and key supply contracts, ESG and impact materials where relevant, and details of sponsor profile and equity contributions. A structured data room and clear index help keep the process efficient.
