How we work

Advice that ends in an instrument.

Every engagement moves through the same four stages. Clients enter at whichever one matches where their programme already is.

The sequence

Four stages, in order.

  1. 01

    Scope

    What the programme costs, what it unlocks, and which counterparties could plausibly pay for it. Ends with a funding options assessment rather than a proposal.

  2. 02

    Structure

    The vehicle, the terms and the legal architecture. Financial and legal structuring runs against the standards and guidelines the instrument will later be assessed against.

  3. 03

    Raise

    Positioning with ministries of finance, development banks, philanthropic and institutional capital, and support through diligence to commitment.

  4. 04

    Hand over

    Guidance, tools and training so the institution can originate and manage the next structure without standing advisory support.

What you get

Deliverables, not decks.

Each stage closes on a document a counterparty can act on.

  • Funding options assessment
  • Instrument term sheet and structuring memorandum
  • Legal architecture and standards alignment note
  • Investor and donor mapping with outreach materials
  • Guidance notes, tools and training curriculum

Principles

How we hold the work.

Name the instrument

Debt-for-nature swap, SDG bond, blended facility. If the instrument cannot be named, the advice is not finished.

Structure for diligence

Every structure is built to be read by a credit committee and a legal team, not by a communications department.

Leave the capacity behind

The mandate is finished when the partner can do the next one without us.

Next step

Where is your programme now?

Scoping, structuring or already raising — tell us the stage and we will start from there.
