Bridge Financing

When you need capital quickly ahead of a defined exit — a refinancing, sale or raise.

Speed is the point; we work with lenders able to move on compressed timelines.

Bridge lenders typically take a charge over the asset or company being bridged, share pledges, and security or assignments connected to the exit itself — for example, sale proceeds or refinancing receipts flowing through a controlled account. Because tenor is short, the strength of the security and the exit drive terms.

A signed sale agreement, a committed or well-advanced refinancing, or a capital raise with firm investor appetite. Lenders test how certain and how dated the exit is — the clearer the take-out, the better the pricing and the higher the advance. A vague intention to refinance is rarely sufficient.

Bridge facilities are priced above conventional senior bank debt, reflecting speed of execution, short tenor and the concentration of repayment in a single exit event. Structures often combine a margin with arrangement and exit fees. The stronger the security and the more certain the take-out, the keener the terms.
