Bespoke Financing, Sourced Competitively

We are an independent capital structuring advisory. We do not lend from a balance sheet and we do not push proprietary products.

Instead, we run a disciplined, competitive process across established private capital providers to deliver bespoke structures aligned with borrower objectives.

  • Structured facilities secured by:

    • Private equity fund interests (NAV-based structures)

    • Private company stock

    • Diversified alternative portfolios and SPVs

    • Real estate holdings

    • Select specialty assets

    Facilities are built around collateral quality, concentration, documentation constraints, and the borrower’s control and liquidity priorities.

  • Structured financing for closely held and growth-stage businesses, including:

    • Senior secured facilities

    • Structured credit solutions

    • Working capital and receivables-based lending

    • Acquisition financing

    Designed to provide non-dilutive capital with controlled collateral impact and a clear path to execution.

  • Situational solutions including:

    • Estate tax bridge financing

    • Liquidity pending asset sale

    • Ownership transitions

    • Portfolio rebalancing

    • GP capital commitments

    Structured to preserve optionality, reduce forced outcomes, and protect long-term asset value.

We serve clients across the United States and select international jurisdictions, subject to asset type and regulatory considerations.

Past Projects

Professional Sports Ownership Liquidity Facility

$25MM–$50MM Structured | 3-Week Process | Multiple Institutional Offers

  • A principal investor in a professional sports franchise required liquidity tied to equity ownership. Traditional banks were unwilling to underwrite against the asset due to league governance structures, ownership restrictions, and valuation complexities.

  • The client sought meaningful liquidity without diluting ownership or triggering governance complications. Timing was critical and the process required discretion.

  • Mac Murchadha structured a tailored lending process, leveraging specialized capital relationships experienced in underwriting complex private equity and franchise holdings. Within three weeks, multiple competitive term sheets were secured.

  • The client accessed substantial liquidity while maintaining full ownership and strategic flexibility. Capital was deployed without disruption to governance or long-term valuation strategy.

Institutional Sports Card Liquidity Facility

$15MM Facility | Tiered Advance Structure | Dynamic Mark-to-Market

  • A high-volume dealer and investor held a $15MM portfolio of institutional-grade sports cards, including rare vintage Hall of Fame assets and ultra-modern 1/1 collectibles. Significant capital was tied up in inventory with no traditional lending options available.

  • The borrower required liquidity while maintaining ownership of high-conviction inventory. Asset volatility differed materially between vintage and modern holdings, requiring differentiated underwriting and disciplined risk controls.

  • Mac M Bespoke Financing structured a $15MM facility secured by graded, authenticated collateral. Advance rates were tiered by asset class, with up to 75% LTC on vintage inventory and 60% LTC on modern holdings. Equity cushions were preserved through ongoing mark-to-market monitoring and first-loss dealer participation.

  • The client unlocked meaningful liquidity without forced sales of premium assets. Capital was deployed efficiently while maintaining inventory exposure and structured downside protection.
