Sector focus

Utility-sector pedigree at partner level

Utility financing lives or dies on the offtake — the power-purchase or water-purchase agreement, the counterparty and the tariff. Matchpoint’s partners have sat on the offtaker side of that table, with senior experience inside a UAE state water-and-electricity offtaker and within a sovereign-backed energy portfolio.

That vantage point informs how we structure and position power and utilities capital — understanding what lenders and investors need to see, and how the contractual framework carries the financing. We bring that perspective to mid-market power, water and utility mandates across the region.

  • Credential: State water-and-electricity offtaker experience
  • Also: Sovereign-backed energy portfolio
  • Products: Project debt, equity, refinancing
  • Focus: Offtake- and PPA-led structuring

Power & Utilities — frequently asked questions

Our partners carry senior experience from a UAE state water-and-electricity offtaker and a sovereign-backed energy portfolio, which informs how we structure power and water financings.

Generation, water and transmission-and-distribution assets and platforms, financed through project debt, equity and refinancing, with offtake and PPA structures at the centre.

Twenty-three sectors across five groups: real estate, infrastructure and data centres; oil and gas, power and utilities, renewable energy, metals and mining and chemicals; industrials, business services, transportation and maritime; consumer and retail, food and beverage, healthcare and sports; and technology, media and telecom, the innovation economy, financial institutions, financial sponsors and the public sector.

Each sector page sets out the relevant transactions, leadership experience and advisory capabilities for that market.

Practice areas describe what we do — equity, debt, M&A, alternatives and execution. Industries describe who we serve. Most mandates combine both: a sector view and the right capital product.

Engagements ordinarily combine a retainer with a success fee. Terms are agreed in writing before work begins and calibrated to the mandate’s size, scope and complexity.

Most mandates reach a first term sheet within 30 days, depending on diligence readiness and structure; closing follows once terms are agreed.

A short, confidential scoping call and NDA; we structure the requirement and prepare materials, then run a competitive process across our 5,000+ investor and lender relationships, and negotiate to close — with a partner leading at every step.

Matchpoint Partners is based in the UAE and runs cross-border mandates across the UAE, KSA, India and the UK, with active deal activity in wider Europe, Singapore and the United States.

Matchpoint undertakes corporate finance, financing, M&A and fund-placement mandates from USD 5m upwards, subject to mandate fit, diligence, applicable regulation, capacity and a written engagement. The partner team has originated and led $2+ billion of transactions.
