The advisory services team provides Corporate and Project Finance solutions. These services encompass a variety of products which are centred on providing off-balance sheet financing solutions for your company. These off-balance sheet solutions include sourcing of debt or equity from other investors or financiers and not from the Bank’s balance sheet.

Advisory Services are charged mainly as a percentage of the deal size or the funds raised. These fees range between 3-5% of the deal size or the funds raised although this can be negotiated.

The Bank leverages its relationships with local and external investors and financiers such as Fund Managers and other multi-lateral financing institutions, from where it obtains required funding for its client’s projects.

The Bank normally requires the client to sign a mandate agreement. It is this agreement that mandates the Bank to act provide the agreed services, in line with the client’s requirements.

The mandate agreement contains a confidentiality clause which protects the information provided to the Bank by its clients.

The department provides Order Finance and Invoice Discounting products.

This is where the Bank provides funding to a client to fulfill/deliver on a confirmed order. The order finance facility should be self-liquidating meaning that the payments received from the order should liquidate the facility.

Invoice discounting is a form of short term borrowing often used to improve a company's working capital and cash flow position. It allows the company to receive advances of funds against outstanding sales invoices. The facility allows a business to draw money against its sales invoices before the debtor has actually paid.
