Institutional Risk
Mitigation

FX

FX & Currency Devaluation Risk

We lend predominantly to enterprises generating hard USD-denominated or USD-indexed revenues (export-oriented agriculture, state-backed energy contractors, cross-border fintech). Short tenors (2–6 months) allow rapid recycling back into USD before currency shifts compound.

Credit & Counterparty Default Risk

Every private debt allocation requires a minimum 1.2x–1.5x collateral coverage in highly liquid, verified real estate or strong corporate receivables. Direct Irrevocable Transfer Instructions (DITI) ensure project revenues pay directly into a fund-controlled escrow account.

Concentration Risk

Strict fund diversification mandate: no single mid-market enterprise can account for more than 15% of the total fund pool. Capital is spread evenly across key resilient target sectors: Fintech, Infrastructure, and Sustainable Agri-tech.
