CEO’s Statement

Mercantile Credit is a boutique Private Equity participator, catering to the needs of Start-Up’s all the way up to established medium sized companies. We are invested in companies across the globe, from Infrastructure in West Africa, to Luxury Real Estate and Alternative Energy in South East Asia. We pride ourselves on understanding our partner’s financial needs as well as having a complete understanding of their markets. Whilst we do not interfere in day to day management decisions, our team of experts are on hand to offer back-up and advice.

If a potential partner fails to meet our Investment Criteria, we do not say, “Good-bye and Good Luck”, on the contrary, we are able to offer them third party finance, commonly referred to as Collateral Finance. Collateral Finance utilises Bank Guarantees to underwrite loans, capital injections and lines of credit. This form of finance has become incredibly popular,and we have promoted this route to many companies who have been unable to access credit facilities or private investment from traditional financiers.

Mercantile Credit, attach huge importance to non-fossil fuels, so as such, we are involving ourselves in the development of alternative energies. We anticipate partnering with dynamic companies, who are at this very moment producing fuels which are much less damaging to our environment.

Mercantile Credit are as always here to help, and in the event a company does not meet our investment criteria, we have partnered with a number of companies in Switzerland and Singapore who offer specialised finance solutions to those companies in need of liquidity or start-up finance.
