A Clear Path From Opportunity to Potential Capital.

Kettiwood Group Finance follows a structured four-stage engagement process designed to understand the opportunity, develop an appropriate capital structure and progress qualifying transactions through formal due diligence.

Relationship-Led Financing

We Start by Understanding the Opportunity.

Serious financing requirements cannot be understood from an amount alone. The business, project, transaction, sponsors, risk profile and commercial objective all matter.

Kettiwood therefore begins with an initial discussion before progressing into structuring, due diligence and potential capital deployment.

The process is designed to determine whether there is a credible opportunity and, where appropriate, what capital structure may make commercial sense.

Four-Stage Process

How a Financing Opportunity Progresses.

Every opportunity begins with preliminary discussion and progresses only where there is sufficient commercial basis for further assessment.

01

Initial Consultation

Understand the project type, sector, financing requirement and strategic objective.

02

Feasibility & Structuring

Review available information and consider a potential financing structure.

03

Due Diligence & Agreement

Conduct formal review, negotiate terms and prepare appropriate documentation.

04

Capital Deployment & Partnership

Approved capital progresses according to agreed terms and transaction milestones.

Stage 01 Begin with a clear discussion about the opportunity and capital requirement.
Initial Consultation

Introduce the Opportunity.

The first stage is designed to understand the fundamentals of the proposed business, project or transaction.

Kettiwood considers the sector, type of opportunity, financing requirement and the client's strategic objective before deciding whether the opportunity should progress.

Business, project or transaction overview
Sector and jurisdiction
Capital amount required
Intended use of capital
Strategic commercial objective
Feasibility & Structuring

Determine Whether the Opportunity Makes Commercial Sense.

Where an opportunity passes preliminary review, Kettiwood considers its commercial characteristics in greater detail.

The purpose of this stage is to understand whether a viable financing structure may exist and what form of capital could be appropriate.

Commercial Feasibility Review the commercial case supporting the opportunity.
Risk Profile Consider transaction-specific, sector and jurisdictional risk.
Capital Structure Debt, equity or blended capital may be considered where appropriate.
Timeline Consider the financing requirement against the commercial or project timeline.
Stage 02 The capital structure is developed around the opportunity, not a fixed financing product.
Stage 03 Detailed review and formal documentation take place before any capital commitment.
Due Diligence & Agreement

Verify, Negotiate and Document the Transaction.

A preliminary structure is not the same as an approval or financing commitment.

Opportunities that progress enter formal due diligence, where relevant business, project and transaction information can be examined in detail.

Review of relevant financial information
Project or transaction documentation
Verification of key commercial information
Negotiation of financing terms
Preparation of formal documentation
Capital Deployment & Partnership

Move From Documentation to Execution.

Where the transaction is approved and formal documentation is completed, capital may then progress toward deployment.

Deployment is governed by the agreed structure, documentation and relevant transaction or project milestones.

Formal agreement completed
Conditions and documentation satisfied
Capital deployed according to agreed terms
Continued engagement where appropriate
Stage 04 Approved transactions progress according to agreed documentation and milestones.
Before You Start

Prepare the Basics of Your Financing Case.

You do not need to know the final capital structure before contacting Kettiwood, but you should be able to explain the opportunity clearly.

Organisation

Provide information about the company, sponsor, consortium or organisation behind the opportunity.

Opportunity

Explain the business, project or transaction for which financing is being sought.

Capital Requirement

State the amount required and provide a clear explanation of the proposed use of funds.

Commercial Information

Prepare relevant financial, project or transaction information that supports the commercial case.

What to Expect

A Commercially Focused Financing Process.

Kettiwood's private financing model is designed around transaction-specific assessment rather than standardized products.

Bespoke Assessment Each opportunity is considered individually.
Responsive Engagement A streamlined private process focused on relevant information.
Commercial Discretion Sensitive transaction information handled within a private process.
Strategic Alignment Capital considered within the wider commercial objective.
Process Timing

Every Transaction Has a Different Timeline.

The time required to evaluate and complete a financing transaction depends on its complexity, readiness and the information available.

Kettiwood does not publish a guaranteed approval or funding timeline. Complex project, infrastructure, trade or strategic transactions may require substantial due diligence, negotiation and documentation before a financing decision.

Review Funding Criteria
Before You Apply

Important Things to Understand.

The preliminary process is designed to determine whether an opportunity merits deeper financing discussions.

Does submitting a request mean financing is approved?

No. A submission begins preliminary consideration only. Any financing remains subject to assessment, due diligence, approval and formal documentation.

Do I need to choose debt or equity before applying?

No. Where an opportunity progresses, Kettiwood can consider debt, equity or blended capital according to the transaction.

Will every opportunity proceed to due diligence?

No. Kettiwood first undertakes preliminary consideration before deciding whether a transaction should progress.

Are final terms agreed during the initial consultation?

No. Final structures and terms are subject to further assessment, negotiation and formal documentation.

This process description is provided for general informational purposes only. Progression through any stage does not constitute an offer, approval, commitment or guarantee of financing. Final terms and any capital deployment remain subject to satisfactory assessment, due diligence, negotiation, approval and formal documentation.
