Eight practice areas, articulated within a single mandate.
None is a stand-alone service: each acts at distinct moments of the cycle, from diagnosis to governance.

Corporate strategy, business model, management and performance systems, entry into new markets, and readiness for fundraising and transactions.
02
Corporate Governance
Corporate and decision-making structure, shareholders' agreements, boards and committees, internal controls, compliance and risk management.
03
Processes & Operational Efficiency
Process mapping and redesign, organisational structure, management information and controllership, margin capture and working capital.

Restructuring & Special Situations
Capacity-to-pay assessment, bank debt renegotiation, corporate and asset reorganisation, and support to urgent measures.

08
Legal Risk & Legal Interface
Design of corporate structures, contractual and collateral risk review, compliance and reporting, and coordination of the client's counsel.
Capital Universe
There is no single capital market.
There are classes of counterparty, each with its own eligibility, tenor, collateral and reporting criteria. The work begins by identifying which one the client's asset belongs to.
Multilateral & development agencies
Long tenor, competitive cost and demanding environmental, social and reporting compliance.
Sovereign & institutional funds
Large tickets, long horizons and strict governance and asset-scale criteria.
Climate & impact capital
Conditioned on verifiable land-use, emissions and environmental compliance metrics.
Special situations & private credit
Speed and risk tolerance in exchange for robust collateral and commensurate return.
Banks & local capital markets
Agribusiness and corporate credit instruments with registered collateral structures.
Traders & strategic capital
Funding tied to origination, offtake or participation in the value chain.
