Services · 04 Capitalization

Realise the value you’ve built.

Whether you’re refinancing, repositioning or selling, value depends on how the asset is packaged and who sees it. We prepare the asset, find the capital and structure the deal.

Questions we answer

What owners ask before a transaction.

  • What is the asset worth?
  • How should it be packaged for investors?
  • How do we reach the capital markets?
  • When and how should we exit?
  • Is the asset held in a structure buyers want?
  • Is a property improvement plan (PIP) needed?
  • How do currency and market cycles affect value?
  • Could the asset be restructured?
  • Who are the potential buyers?
  • What class is the asset, and what’s its potential?

What we do

Know the value. Find the buyer.

Holding structures & exit planning

How an asset is owned decides how easily it can be sold. We set up holding structures for our clients’ hospitality assets, using special purpose vehicles (SPVs) and holding companies in suitable jurisdictions such as Singapore, so that at exit a buyer can acquire the company that owns the hotel rather than the hotel itself. Share sales are typically faster, keep licences and contracts in place, and can reduce transfer costs. We work alongside your legal and tax advisors throughout.
