Structuring services for Private debt and Direct lending 

As a startup or an already established business, funding is necessary for scaling up. There are many ways of acquiring funds to further develop a company, but most usually come with extra conditions and some difficulty. To make things easier, direct lenders offered an attractive alternative: private debt loaning.

Private debt doesn’t involve banks or capital markets and is much more friendly and responsive to sector-wide challenges than the loans given by conventional banking institutions.

Before going into private debt loaning, consulting with a financial advisor can increase the chances you’ll make the best decision. And finding an eligible financial advisor doesn’t have to be difficult. Your Damalion expert is here for you. We are an independent consulting firm that provides customized solutions to meet clients’ needs.

Any type of loan can be tricky, so it’s important to understand as much as you can before moving forward with it.

Private Debt 

Private debt are loans that are generally made by non-bank investors. Private Debt offers flexible, bank-independent debt financing, for a vast range of industries, company sizes, and financing reasons.

Private debts provide tailor-made, and flexible financing solutions, in addition to fast implementation. Also, neither banks nor capital markets are required and they are convenient for medium-sized, lower-rated companies.

Depending on your business there are many types of private debt options to choose from:

• Direct lending: this mainly focuses on providing loans to private middle market companies.
• Distressed debt: this refers to obtaining debt securities of companies experiencing some type of financial or operational stress.
• Special situations: this is debt or structured equity investments made to gain control of a company.
• Mezzanine debt: this is a type of subordinated debt with embedded equity instruments attached. It is a combination of debt and equity financing.
• Infrastructure debt: this debt fund is established to loan money to finance the building of important societal and economic needs.
• Real estate debt: this is commonly set up by a private debt manager and backed by their investors and is commonly aimed at real estate acquisitions.
• Venture debt: this characterizes loans made to small, early-stage businesses, usually in pair with equity arrangements.

Irrespective of the type of financing you require, the best way to find financing is through networking and connecting with investors of all kinds.
Whichever you feel is right for your business, your Damalion expert can help in making the right connection.
