$25M+ Capital Structuring

Handle structures $25M+ capital stacks for operating businesses, family enterprises, and private capital vehicles where governance, covenants, and jurisdiction matter as much as price. We align equity, debt, and hybrid instruments into one enforceable architecture that preserves control, protects downside, and keeps execution inside the institution.

From first term sheet to final closing, we lock in capital certainty through disciplined structuring, legal enforceability, and lender–investor alignment. One statement of work. One capital plan. One accountable partner across law, strategy, and execution.

At $25M and above, capital structure becomes a governing system, not a funding event. Handle designs that system with legal precision, covenant discipline, and jurisdictional clarity across UAE and key international forums.

We sit at the intersection of law, capital, and control: aligning investor appetite with sponsor objectives, converting negotiations into enforceable documents, and building a structure that withstands stress, scrutiny, and succession.

• Integrated legal and capital advisory under one institutional execution model
• Deep familiarity with lender, investor, and family-office requirements in and through the UAE
• Governance frameworks that protect control while satisfying institutional capital standards
• Covenant and security packages engineered for predictability, not friction
• Regulatory fluency across CBUAE, SCA, DFSA, FSRA, and relevant offshore regimes
• Outcome focus: capital certainty, enforceable rights, and controlled downside exposure

Handle leads $25M+ capital structuring from mandate definition to funds flow, with disciplined control over governance, covenants, and documentation. Each structure is engineered to align commercial objectives with legal enforceability and capital resilience.

We coordinate sponsors, investors, lenders, and counsel under one execution model; removing ambiguity, compressing timelines, and delivering a capital stack that can be executed, monitored, and enforced.

• Capital stack design across equity, debt, and hybrid instruments
• Shareholder and investment agreements with clear governance and exit mechanics
• Debt documentation including facilities, security, intercreditor, and covenant packages
• Hybrid and preferred structures: convertibles, structured equity, profit-participating instruments
• Regulatory and jurisdictional alignment for UAE and key offshore/onshore vehicles
• Closing execution: CP management, perfection of security, funds flow, and post-closing actions
