Funding Criteria

Is Your Opportunity Ready for Financing?

Understand the information and commercial characteristics Kettiwood Group Finance considers when reviewing businesses, projects and strategic financing opportunities.

Preliminary Eligibility

Strong Opportunities Begin With Clear Information.

Kettiwood Group Finance does not approach serious financing requirements as standardized applications.

Every business, project and transaction is considered on its individual commercial merits before a potential financing structure is developed.

Meeting preliminary criteria does not guarantee financing. Final structures and terms remain subject to assessment, due diligence, negotiation and formal documentation.

The objective is to understand the opportunity before considering the capital structure.
What We Look For

Characteristics of a Strong Financing Opportunity.

A preliminary assessment is easier when the opportunity is commercially clear and supported by relevant information.

Credible Business or Project

A clearly identifiable business, project or transaction with a defined commercial purpose and responsible sponsors.

Defined Capital Requirement

A clear understanding of how much capital is required and what that financing is expected to support.

Clear Use of Funds

A specific commercial purpose for the requested capital rather than an undefined general funding request.

Commercial Viability

A credible commercial case showing how the business, project or transaction is expected to create value.

Capable Sponsors or Management

A credible team responsible for managing the business, transaction or delivery of the proposed project.

Supporting Information

Sufficient financial, commercial or project information to allow meaningful preliminary assessment and due diligence.

$500K+
Indicative Financing Requirement Website guidance for substantial financing enquiries.
Financing Scale

Built for Meaningful Capital Requirements.

Kettiwood Group Finance is positioned toward established businesses, project sponsors and substantial commercial opportunities rather than small consumer or microfinance lending.

Financing requirements of approximately $500,000 and above are used across this website as an indicative guide for the scale of opportunities being targeted.

This figure is website guidance rather than a guaranteed minimum, approval threshold or commitment to finance.

A clear financing case allows for a more meaningful preliminary assessment.
Strong Financing Case

Explain the Opportunity Clearly.

The strongest initial submissions explain not only how much capital is required, but why it is needed and what commercial objective it will support.

What the business, project or transaction involves
How much financing is required
Exactly what the capital will be used for
How the opportunity is expected to perform commercially
Who is responsible for executing the opportunity
Sponsor Readiness

The People Behind the Opportunity Matter.

Financing is not assessed on the asset or capital requirement alone. The ability of the business or sponsor to execute the opportunity is also relevant.

Credible Management A clearly identifiable management or project team responsible for execution.
Commercial Capability Relevant experience or capacity to manage the proposed business or project.
Information Readiness Ability and willingness to provide information required for formal review.
Due-Diligence Readiness Willingness to proceed through formal verification, negotiation and documentation.
Strong capital opportunities require capable people behind them.
Use of Capital

Financing Should Have a Defined Commercial Purpose.

Kettiwood's financing solutions are intended for clearly identified commercial requirements rather than undefined requests for capital.

Business Growth

Significant capital supporting credible business growth, capacity or strategic development.

Project Development

Capital requirements connected to clearly defined commercial projects.

Infrastructure

Strategic capital requirements linked to significant infrastructure opportunities.

Strategic Transactions

Capital supporting credible trade, acquisition, expansion or other significant commercial opportunities.

Information to Prepare

What Should You Have Available?

The exact information required will depend on the type and complexity of the opportunity, but a strong initial enquiry should be supported by relevant commercial information.

Company or sponsor profile
Project or transaction overview
Financing amount required
Detailed use of funds
Relevant financial information
Commercial or project projections where relevant
Proposed implementation or transaction timeline
Strategic commercial objective

Capital Structure

The Appropriate Structure Depends on the Opportunity.

Kettiwood may consider different forms of capital according to the commercial characteristics and risk profile of the opportunity.

Debt Capital

May be considered where the opportunity supports an appropriate repayment framework.

Equity Capital

May be considered where participation better reflects the strategic characteristics of the opportunity.

Blended Capital

Debt and equity characteristics may be combined where a more tailored structure is appropriate.

Supporting Information Relevant financial or commercial information is available.
