MEZZANINE FINANCE
Mezzanine finance structured around the funding gap
Mezzanine finance for commercial property and other transactions where additional capital is required alongside senior debt and borrower equity. Allott Capital considers each opportunity in the context of the borrower, asset, capital structure, funding requirement and intended exit.
Mezzanine finance can help address the gap within a transaction
Some commercial transactions require more capital than senior debt alone is able to provide, while increasing the borrower’s equity contribution may not be the preferred or practical solution. Mezzanine finance can provide an additional layer of funding within the overall capital structure where appropriate.
Allott Capital considers the requirement in the context of the complete transaction, including the borrower, underlying asset or business, senior funding position, proposed use of funds and intended repayment pathway. The objective is to understand where the funding sits within the structure and how it supports the broader commercial outcome.
COMMON REQUIREMENTS
Mezzanine funding for different transaction requirements
Funding shortfalls
Additional capital where a gap exists between available senior debt and the borrower’s equity contribution within a commercial transaction.
Acquisitions
Mezzanine finance to support an acquisition where the proposed capital structure requires funding beyond the senior debt component.
Development requirements
Additional funding within a development transaction where senior finance and borrower equity form part of a broader funding structure.
Refinancing & restructuring
Funding where an existing debt structure or changing transaction requirement warrants consideration of an additional layer of capital.
OUR APPROACH
Looking at the complete capital structure
01
Transaction and borrower
We consider the commercial purpose of the transaction, the borrower’s circumstances and the underlying asset or business.
02
Senior debt and funding gap
The existing or proposed senior funding position and the additional capital required help define where mezzanine finance may sit within the structure.
03
Repayment and exit
The proposed repayment, refinance or other exit pathway is considered as part of the overall funding structure.
Mezzanine finance for borrowers and their advisers
Allott Capital works directly with commercially focused borrowers and alongside brokers and advisers representing transactions where additional capital may be required within the funding structure.
Borrowers and brokers can proceed directly to an application by providing the relevant transaction, funding structure and supporting information upfront. If you would prefer to discuss the requirement before applying, you can still start an enquiry with the Allott Capital team.
