INNOVATIVE ADVISORY ASSIGNMENTS

IAF is retained for its truly independent view and its proven, seasoned skills not just for project financings but for M&A, equity, contract structuring, and other matters bridging the commercial and financial aspects of an enterprise.

Numerous advisory assignments have been conducted world-wide on almost every financing structure imaginable. Many were targeted at a project development or acquisition of a project-driven company. Many have involved the integration of new marketing or financing practices. This list of innovations features:

World-first Rehabilitation Guarantee (as part of a project financing)
  • First hard-minerals production payment under Crown Law
  • Use of ‘petroleum’ throughput agreement for an aircraft leveraged lease
  • First US$ L/C-backed A$ bill facility
  • First dual-convertible gold ‘project’ bond
    Rehabilitation Royalty structure (for Government client)
  • Annuity Repayment Loan
  • All-steps Completion Tests
  • Minority Joint Venture Financings (down to 5% interest)
  • Cross-border Royalty Trust (and subsequent listing)

      Many other tools have been developed by IAF, especially for deal/cashflow flexibility.  It isn't the amount of financing that's important.  It isn't the cost savings that is the key to the mandate. It's getting the financing and keeping it flexible that rules the day.
