Capital, raised, structured and managed.

Tiger 8 is a boutique capital markets advisory firm. We help issuers, sponsors and institutions raise debt and equity, structure the transaction, and manage the capital once it's in place.

Why
Tiger
8

Model-first.

Every structure is stress-tested before it's proposed.

One team across every counterparty.

Single coordination point for lawyers, underwriters, insurers and investors.

Aligned compensation.

We're paid when your transaction closes, and we say so up front.

Clear for first-timers, rigorous for institutions.

We explain the mechanics early and hold ourselves to institutional standards throughout.

Focus Areas

The capital markets work we concentrate on.

Debt Capital Markets

Bringing first-time issuers to market, rated and ready. Credit-focused models, investor materials, note structuring, credit enhancements, and equity commitment mechanisms. Rating-agency preparation through indicative and final stages. Offering memorandum review, counsel appointment, and coordination of underwriters, custodians and trustees through to listing. We then stay on for post-issuance reporting and follow-on planning. Sukuk and other Shari'ah-compliant structures are handled with the same discipline.

Fundraising & Capital Origination

Good projects fail for lack of introductions, not lack of merit. We prepare the sponsor's story and numbers, identify the right pool of capital (institutions, family offices, banks, strategic investors), and manage outreach, diligence and negotiation to closing. Our compensation is success-based and disclosed in writing before we begin, so our incentive is the same as yours.

Equity & Hybrid Structuring

Not every raise should be debt. We structure private placements, preferred equity, co-investment and joint-venture vehicles, and the SPVs that hold them. We also design equity commitment arrangements that strengthen a credit profile without tying up capital that may never be called.

Institutional Portfolio Management

We help institutions turn mandate into portfolio: asset allocation, security and manager selection, risk monitoring and reporting, with fixed-income and structured credit as a particular strength.

Real estate and asset-backed finance

Construction, acquisition, refinancing and lending platforms with tangible collateral.

Islamic finance

Sukuk and Shari'ah-compliant structures. We have experience with different Islamic contracts spanning Murabaha, Ijarah, Mudarabah, Wakala, etc.

Leadership

Decades of capital markets, structuring and cross-border finance experience, applied to one task: getting your issuance over the line.
