Constructions & Development

Market Overview

The construction and development sector offers significant opportunities for disciplined investors who can navigate complex project timelines, regulatory frameworks, and market dynamics. We provide structured project finance to support developments ranging from luxury residential to large-scale mixed-use projects.

Our investment criteria emphasise developments with strong pre-sales or pre-letting activity, experienced development teams, and locations with proven demand fundamentals. We work closely with our development partners throughout the project lifecycle, from planning through to completion and exit.

Capital is deployed through carefully structured facilities that align with construction milestones, ensuring rigorous oversight and capital protection throughout the development process.

Opportunity

Urbanisation, housing demand and premium real estate in gateway cities continue to support construction and development activity. Well-located projects with experienced sponsors and robust demand fundamentals remain attractive relative to broader real estate indices.

Our Approach

We provide senior and mezzanine project finance, milestone-based construction facilities and selective joint-venture equity. Capital is released only against verified progress, sales performance and independent sign-off.

Risk Management

Risk is mitigated through independent quantity surveyor reports, milestone disbursement controls, escrow arrangements, sales monitoring, and personal or corporate guarantees from the sponsor where appropriate.

Investment Criteria

• Experienced developer with relevant project completion record
• Planning permissions and entitlements substantially in place
• Strong pre-sales, pre-letting or demonstrated demand
• Conservative loan-to-cost and loan-to-value ratios
• Clear exit through sale, refinancing or lease stabilisation
