Distressed assets, CMBS, restructurings and opportunities that fall outside conventional lender or investor mandates. We find the right counterparty for situations that require speed, discretion and deep market knowledge not a public process.
Every year a small number of transactions do not fit any standard mandate the tenor is wrong, the collateral is wrong, the timing is wrong, or the situation is simply too sensitive for a broad process. That does not mean they cannot be done. It means they must be matched, not marketed. We work bilaterally with principals to structure and place the trade with the specific counterparty most suited to underwrite it.
Confidential brief. We evaluate whether the situation is genuinely fundable and where a counterparty realistically sits.
Deal reshaped where necessary: waterfall, collateral, tenor, covenants to be executable by a defined buyer profile.
Direct approach to the identified counterparty. No broad market circulation, no leakage.
Documented and closed via principal counsel on both sides. A1 exits at closing.
Owner or lender needs an off-market solution for a stressed commercial asset. We match to a specialist buyer.
Placement of illiquid or off-mandate CMBS tranches into the right institutional book.
Bespoke capital solutions for companies whose profile no longer fits their existing lender syndicate.
Large blocks of listed or private paper that require a discreet counterparty rather than an order book.
Advisory. We are not a principal and we do not warehouse risk. Our role is to structure and match: closing is between the underlying principals.
Every enquiry is treated bilaterally from the first call. No blind teasers, no market circulation, no third-party syndication.
For a well-briefed situation, first counterparty engagement within days. Documented close typically inside 6 to 10 weeks.
A 30-minute confidential conversation. No intermediaries. No pitch decks. Gary takes every introductory call himself.
