OUR WORK
KSM & Associates assisted a publicly-traded US developer and owner in raising $100 Million of corporate bonds on their $800 Millon portfolio of multi-family, offices and ground-up residential development in the TASE. The bonds are not secured directly by the assets and enabling the developer to invest the proceeds in refinancing expensive mezzanine loans, buy partners out and invest in new acquisitions/developments. In many cases, this vehicle provides significantly lower cost of capital compare to the North American capital markets solutions and assist the developers in increasing their portfolio size substantially.
KSM consulted for a US developer in raising $25 Million equity to their $95 Million ground up multi-family project in Chicago. We were able to facilitate a strong relationship between the developer to a $60 Billion institutional investor that has a substantial amount of capital dedicated to ground-up developments across North America and has the ability to invest alongside the developer in many more deals going forward.
In a private offering, KSM & Associates assisted in raising $35 Million of corporate bonds to a publicly-traded US developer in the Israeli capital market, the private offering process is very efficient and providing the client access to the funds in a matter of weeks from the begging of the process. The bonds are not secured directly by the assets and enabling the developer to continue expanding their portfolio efficiently with a lower cost of capital compared to the North American capital markets.
