G.Mercury & Cie

Seven practices, one standard

Real assets, contracts before capital, and States that retain ownership.

Arranging an industrial or infrastructure asset is not merely fundraising: it requires combining equity engineering, dialogue with public authorities, physical control over equipment costs, risk management, and quantitative modeling.

CORE INTERVENTION

The three arrangement pillars

01 — 03
01Core Practice

Private Equity & Capital Investment

The asset finances the asset, rather than the State's balance sheet

Patient equity and quasi-equity backed by real assets over long horizons; we prioritize structures where the asset finances the asset, rather than burdening the public balance sheet.

01Incorporation of a dedicated project vehicle (SPV) per productive asset or infrastructure
02Transparent tranche structuring: non-recourse senior debt, quasi-equity, and common equity
03Minority growth equity investments with an exit mechanism agreed upon at entry
04Audited accounts, quarterly reporting, and institutional-grade governance
02Core Practice

Commercial Diplomacy

Public-private alliances & investment conventions

Connecting governments, institutional investors, and industrial operators; preparing ministerial hearings, memoranda of understanding, investment conventions, and treaty protections.

01Direct dialogue with Ministries of Finance, Economy, and technical line ministries
02Preparation of concession agreements and fixed-term operating rights
03Upfront preparation of off-public-debt classification with finance authorities
04Legal structuring of long-term offtake contracts and currency transfer guarantees
