Investor introductions
Investor introductions to institutional capital providers
Introductions to infrastructure funds, private equity, family offices, private credit and strategic investors whose current mandate matches your sector, stage, geography and ticket size. Made individually, with your agreement, to named decision makers.
Mandate fit
Most approaches fail on fit before they fail on merit.
Every institutional investor works to a mandate: the sectors, stages, geographies, ticket sizes and return targets its investment committee will approve. An approach outside that mandate is declined however good the opportunity, and an investor that has declined once is slower to look again.
BriHel maintains more than 2,000 institutional investor records, mapped by sector appetite, stage, geography, ticket size and capital type, and updated from live origination activity. Before any introduction we confirm the investor is actively deploying into opportunities of that kind.

Approach
How introductions work
Short list, not a distribution list
A small number of investors chosen for fit, each with the reasoning recorded.
Your agreement first
No investor receives your name or materials without your approval of the investor and the information shared.
Named decision makers
Introductions go to the person who can take the opportunity to committee, not a general inbox.
Prepared before introduced
We introduce opportunities that are ready. Where they are not, the Investor Readiness Review comes first.
Clear role
We introduce. You and the investor engage directly, each with your own advisers.
Fees agreed in advance
Any introduction fee is set out in signed terms of business and disclosed to both parties.
Capital providers
Investors we introduce to
Infrastructure funds
Core, core plus, value add and opportunistic funds investing equity in energy, digital, transport and social infrastructure. Large tickets, long holds.
Private equity
Control or significant minority positions in companies and platforms, with a defined exit horizon.
Family offices
Flexible, patient capital. Single and multi family offices increasingly invest directly in energy transition, real estate and growth companies.
Private credit
Direct lending and specialist credit funds offering senior, unitranche, mezzanine and holdco debt.
Banks and institutional lenders
Project finance and corporate lending, typically for contracted, operational or construction stage assets.
Strategic investors
Corporates and operators seeking capacity, technology, supply or market access.
Pension, insurance and sovereign capital
Long term owners of de risked, cash yielding assets, often investing through or alongside funds.
