Raymond Leigh & Partners advises clients on structuring and securing debt capital to optimize their financial flexibility and achieve strategic objectives. Our deep lender relationships span a wide range of financing sources, including traditional and alternative lenders, enabling us to deliver tailored solutions across the capital structure.

We assist clients in identifying the most suitable debt instruments for their needs, from senior and subordinated loans to asset-based financing and credit facilities. Our expertise in structuring and negotiating complex debt arrangements ensures favorable terms that align with long-term goals. With a proven track record of over $15 billion in debt transactions, we are a trusted partner for businesses navigating critical financing decisions.

Convertible Debt

Debt securities that can convert into equity at a predetermined price or under specific conditions. Convertible debt offers downside protection for lenders while providing potential equity upside, making it attractive for both early-stage and high-growth companies.

Mezzanine Debt

Hybrid financing that combines features of debt and equity, typically used to support leveraged buyouts or growth capital needs. Mezzanine debt is subordinated to senior debt and often comes with equity conversion rights, offering a strategic layer of capital with higher return potential.


Leasing and Equipment Financing

Capital solutions for acquiring equipment, allowing companies to spread costs over time while preserving cash flow. Leasing options can be structured to maximize tax benefits and align with the company’s operational cash requirements.

Venture Debt

Provide startups and high-growth companies with non-dilutive financing to scale operations without giving up control.

Project Finance

Long-term financing for large infrastructure or industrial projects, structured so that the project’s cash flow and assets serve as collateral. Project finance involves meticulous risk assessment and is often used in energy, transportation, and public-private partnerships.

Infrastructure Debt

Debt financing tailored for infrastructure projects, offering long-term, stable returns for investors. Infrastructure debt is used for assets such as highways, airports, utilities, and renewable energy projects.

Warehousing Loans

Short-term credit facilities used to finance the holding of assets, such as mortgages or inventory, until they are sold or securitized. Commonly used in mortgage banking and trade finance to manage liquidity and cash flow efficiently.

Inventory Financing

We help businesses secure capital by leveraging their inventory as collateral, providing flexible funding to purchase stock or manage cash flow. This allows companies to meet demand without depleting working capital, ensuring smooth operations and growth.

We carefully match borrowers with lenders whose terms align with their objectives, ensuring mutually beneficial outcomes.
