Fundraising advisory

Bank debt, private debt, private equity and concessional financing, structured according to your risk profile.

A successful fundraising is not just a matter of finding a lender or investor willing to sign. It requires a financial structure that the funder can defend before its own committee — bank debt, private debt, private equity or concessional financing, depending on the nature of the project and the company's risk profile.

AXIS FINANCE advises growth companies on selecting and structuring the most suitable instrument, then leads the negotiation through to the actual raising of funds — not merely to the delivery of a recommendation.

Access to development finance institutions and concessional financing is an integral part of this offering, alongside conventional sources of financing.

Our approach

What sets our approach apart.

The right instrument, not the simplest

Debt, equity or a hybrid instrument: the choice depends on your balance-sheet structure and your horizon, not on a default preference.

Access to development finance institutions

Concessional financing and development finance institutions (DFIs) are mobilised alongside conventional bank financing.

Negotiation through to closing

We lead the negotiation, the documentation and the satisfaction of conditions precedent — the mandate ends at disbursement.

In practice

How we work.

Frequently asked questions

What we are asked most often.

Debt or equity: how should I choose?

The choice depends on your repayment capacity, your growth horizon and your tolerance for dilution. An initial diagnostic allows us to recommend the instrument, or combination of instruments, best suited to your situation.

Do you support fundraising from development finance institutions?

Yes, access to concessional financing and development finance institutions (DFIs) is part of our fundraising advisory offering.

What is the minimum amount for an advised fundraising?

We do not apply a published minimum threshold: our mandates range from financing for growth companies to large transactions, depending on the sector and the type of financing.
