Our Approach

Capital strategy built on
relationships and rigour.

We bring together the discipline of institutional finance with the access of a seasoned dealmaker — delivering outcomes that standard advisory cannot.

Why HIS

We do not just advise. We structure, source, and execute.

Most capital advisors introduce principals and step back. Harris International Solutions stays at the table through every stage — from initial structuring through lender syndication, term sheet negotiation, due diligence management, and financial close.

Our value comes from access. Over years of work across global capital markets and major project categories, we have cultivated direct relationships with institutional lenders, development finance institutions, export credit agencies, private equity funds, and sovereign capital — giving our clients a meaningful advantage in sourcing and closing the right financing.

We work best early. The earlier a sponsor engages us, the more we can shape the capital stack to attract the broadest and most competitive universe of capital.

How We Work

A rigorous process. A disciplined path to financial close.

01
Initial Assessment

We conduct a rapid but thorough assessment of the project — scale, sector, sponsor strength, jurisdiction, and capital requirement — to confirm fit and identify the most appropriate financing pathways.

02
Capital Stack Design

We design a capital structure — senior debt, mezzanine, equity, and any credit enhancements — that optimises cost of capital against project risk profile, sponsor requirements, and lender appetite.

03
Lender & Investor Selection

Drawing on our active institutional relationships, we curate a targeted list of capital providers best matched to the project's sector, geography, and risk — avoiding broad mandates that dilute credibility.

04
Mandate & Presentation

We prepare a compelling, lender-grade information package — financial model, information memorandum, and supporting technical material — and lead the presentation process to capital providers.

05
Term Sheet Negotiation

When term sheets arrive, we negotiate hard — covenants, pricing, security, drawdown conditions, and sponsor protections — to ensure the documentation reflects the project's actual risk and our client's interests.

06
Due Diligence & Close

We manage the due diligence process through to financial close — coordinating technical, legal, and financial workstreams and ensuring momentum is maintained through the most complex part of any transaction.

Our Principles

The values that guide every engagement.

I
Discretion Above All

Our clients share sensitive financial information, capital requirements, and strategic plans with us. That information remains with us. We never disclose client relationships or use one client's information to benefit another.

II
Alignment, Not Commission

We structure our engagements to align with outcomes — not transaction volume. We will tell you when a project is not ready for capital, when a structure needs improvement, and when to wait for better market conditions.

III
Access That Matters

The value of a capital advisor is the quality and relevance of their relationships. We maintain active dialogue with a select group of institutional capital providers — meaning introductions come with credibility, not just contact information.

IV
Global Scale, Personal Service

We can access international capital — export credit, development finance, sovereign wealth — while remaining a boutique firm where the principal is directly involved in every engagement. No hand-offs to junior staff.

V
Rigour in Everything

Lenders close on projects that are well-prepared. We hold our clients to a high standard of documentation, financial modelling, and due diligence readiness — because poor preparation is the most preventable reason deals fail to close.

VI
Long-Term Relationships

The most valuable thing we offer is not a single financing — it is a relationship built over time across multiple projects. We invest in understanding our clients' businesses, goals, and risk appetite over the long term.

Financing Capability

From $10 million to multi-billion dollar programs.

Harris International Solutions has the reach and relationships to finance projects across a wide range of scales. We take on assignments starting at $10 million — and have the institutional access to structure financing for some of the largest infrastructure programs globally.

For stadium and arena programs, entertainment districts, mine construction, and major infrastructure corridors, we can structure and arrange financing running into the several billions — covering full capital expenditure with appropriate mix of debt, equity, and credit enhancement.
