Realising the value of intellectual capital
Merchant Banking
The global financial crisis marked a fundamental shift in the need for private capital to fund infrastructure projects, which had traditionally been the domain of governments. Government deficits have never been higher and the banking market is unable to meet current demands. For this reason it is inevitable that private capital will be required, and we are already seeing a marked step up in both the privatisation of existing infrastructure assets and the provision of new projects by the private sector.
As an independent financial advisory firm TLC helps develop and finance infrastructure projects in Asia that can meaningfully improve peoples’ lives, with a special emphasis on emerging markets where there are critical needs in power, utilities, and transportation. We offer flexible financing solutions, industry-leading sector expertise, and an established track record in developing countries.
Our focus is supporting private infrastructure projects with strong development impact whose business models can be replicated elsewhere.
ThomasLloyd Capital (TLC)
is one of the world's leading specialist financial advisors solely dedicated to the infrastructure sector in Asia.
At ThomasLloyd Capital, our infrastructure specialists are encouraged to think innovatively to address individual technical and commercial project challenges. This, combined with our ability to invest our own capital to bridge any remaining time, financial or risk gap, differentiates us from any other financial advisory firm.
Proven Execution Capabilities
Whether we were advising US-based Q-Cells International on the financing, commercial documentation and deal structuring of North America´s largest solar plant, co-developing and financing the first ever utility-scale renewable energy plant in the Philippines or executing the largest M&A transaction in the solar sector in South East Asia to date; each transaction represented at the time an innovative and precedential response to the constantly changing global financial industry.
Over the past decade we have completed more than 50 transactions in the sector, of which some are ranking today among the benchmark transactions in the industry.
Our Clients
TLC is servicing public and private sector clients involved in developing, owning and operating crucial infrastructure in Asia. Our clients include project developers, construction companies, equipment manufacturer, municipalities, utilities and other industry participants.
Our Offering
TLC offers a full suite of advisory and capital raising services including project finance, equity & debt capital markets, M&A, research and principal investments. In addition to advice, TLC has a strong track record of investing alongside our clients to assist with transaction execution - a willingness that demonstrates our belief in the transactions. As a principal we share common interests with our clients.
