STRUCTURE A FINANCING
See the cost behind the terms.
How NEXA would connect borrowing terms, collateral, liquidity and the client’s alternatives.
AN ILLUSTRATIVE BRIEF
Start with the question.
A client is financing an asset purchase. One lender offers a lower rate in exchange for a pledge over an investment portfolio. The question is whether the saving justifies the liquidity and control the client would give up.
What we would bring togetherThe purchase terms, indicative loan offers, cash-flow needs, available assets and the client’s limits on pledging collateral.
HOW NEXA WOULD APPROACH IT
Build the case.
Connect each decision.
- 01
Start with the client’s limits.
Establish required liquidity, repayment flexibility and willingness to pledge assets. Available collateral does not mean permission to use it. Identify the client’s alternative if acceptable terms cannot be agreed.
- 02
Compare complete structures.
Set asset-only security alongside a capped pledge, more equity, a smaller loan, leasing, cash or deferral where relevant. Compare interest, fees, liquidity sacrificed and execution dependencies. Explain material exclusions.
- 03
Trace the downside through the balance sheet.
Examine income disruption, portfolio drawdowns, collateral calls and refinancing exposure together. Show who must provide cash, when it is needed and what could trigger a forced sale.
- 04
Define the negotiating exchange.
Treat extra collateral as a concession. Identify the pricing, pledge limits, release rights and repayment flexibility sought in return. Examine seller concessions separately, and distinguish proposed terms from accepted ones.
CONNECTING THE DOTS
What changes downstream?
- 01Portfolio drawdown
- 02Collateral shortfall
- 03Cash call
- 04Liquidity pressure
- 05Total client cost
A lower headline rate can create a more expensive outcome if a portfolio decline triggers a cash call. NEXA would connect the loan terms to the client’s wider liquidity before comparing the alternatives.
