Share-Secured Bridging and Distressed Resolution

Situation

Short-term funding was required where property-level security could not be obtained, necessitating alternative security over ownership interests in a hospitality group.

Complexity

• No first or second mortgage available

• Security taken over majority shareholding rather than real property

• Default triggered by external shock events

• Court proceedings followed by negotiated resolution

  
  

Role

Structured a share-secured bridging facility and managed enforcement and recovery strategy.

What Was Done

• Structured a $1M bridging facility secured over majority shareholding

• Managed default and legal proceedings

• Negotiated an out-of-court settlement and asset sale

• Oversaw recovery through to completion

  
  

Outcome

• Capital recovered in full

• Transaction resolved without prolonged litigation

• Final outcome delivered a multiple of invested capital through disciplined enforcement strategy
