Credit enhancement consists in pairing a low-credit-rated project with an asset-rich investor to build a stronger balance sheet that can, in turn, be used as acceptable collateral for a lender.
Some of our credit enhancement solutions
- Financial guarantee: reinforce the borrower's balance sheet with restricted cash. The cash can only be used to repay a loan in case of default.
- Insurance wrap: guarantee the service of the debt with an insurance guarantee.
- Bond enhancement: upgrade a bond's credit rating to investment grade to make it "sellable" on the capital markets.
- Fund setup: transfer non-cash assets into a regulated fund as an anchor equity investment to enable access to institutional investors.
