A stack, not a single loan.
Most projects need more than one lender. We combine concessional debt, commercial debt and hybrid capital into one structure, sized to the cash flows and the risk allocation.
Senior debt against contracted cash flow. Concessional layers where the tenor or risk needs support. Mezzanine between senior debt and equity. The mix follows the asset, not a template.
Five solutions. One structure.

How a stack comes together.
01 / Concessional and guarantee layer
DFIs, climate funds and guarantee providers take the longest tenor or first-loss positions where the development case is strong.
02 / Commercial layer
Banks and private debt funds price the operating asset against contracted cash flow and security.
03 / Sponsor equity
The sponsor carries the residual risk and the upside, sized to the project return.
Capital FAQs.
The questions we answer most often. Every structure remains subject to lender approval and due diligence.
How do the five solutions fit together?
They are layers of one structure. Concessional debt can extend tenor, project finance prices the asset, mezzanine fills the gap, trade finance funds the flow and green facilities align the reporting.
Can EACDA arrange the whole stack?
Yes. We design the structure, approach the lenders and stay accountable through conditions precedent to financial close.
What does a first mandate look like?
A short brief, a bankability review, then a scoped work plan and a capital raise if the case holds.
