International Project Finance Advisory and Capital Raising
Projects RH is an international corporate finance and project advisory firm specialising in project finance advisory, investor readiness, financial modelling, investment documentation and capital raising. We help companies, project sponsors and management teams transform complex opportunities into credible, investor-ready propositions for engagement with investors, lenders, family offices and other capital providers.
Our approach is built around a simple principle: preparation comes before capital. We establish the facts, test the financial foundations, identify material gaps and develop a coherent investment case before any capital raising process begins. Where appropriate, capital raising is undertaken under a separate mandate, with a disciplined focus on connecting well-prepared opportunities with relevant sources of capital.
Investor Readiness and Transaction Preparation
Projects RH helps management teams and project sponsors prepare for serious capital discussions by establishing the facts, strengthening the financial foundation and developing clear, consistent investment documentation. Our focus is to identify material gaps before investor engagement and ensure that the financial model, commercial narrative and supporting materials present a coherent investment case. Preparation comes before capital raising. Once an opportunity is properly prepared and considered suitable for the market, Projects RH may support investor engagement under a separate capital raising mandate. This disciplined approach keeps the focus on credibility, transparency and transaction readiness.
Establish the Facts
We begin by understanding the project, its commercial proposition and the information available. We identify material gaps, test key assumptions and establish a clear factual foundation so that the investment case is built on credible, consistent information rather than expectation alone.
Build the financial foundation
We develop or test the financial model to ensure that key assumptions, commercial drivers and funding requirements are clearly understood and aligned with the investment case. The objective is to create a credible financial foundation that supports informed discussions with investors, lenders and other capital providers.
Prepare the Investor Documentation
We prepare clear, professional investment materials that bring the financial model, commercial narrative and supporting information into one consistent investment case. This can include the Information Memorandum, investor pitch deck and teaser, designed to give investors, lenders and other capital providers the information needed to evaluate the opportunity.
Define the Transaction Pathway
We assess the appropriate route to capital based on the project’s funding requirements, stage and investment proposition. Once the opportunity is properly prepared, Projects RH can define a structured transaction pathway and, where appropriate, support engagement with relevant investors, lenders and other capital providers under a separate capital raising mandate.
