Structured Finance: A Catalyst for Sustainable Development
Structured finance has emerged as a pivotal tool in reshaping the economic landscape, particularly for projects centered on sustainability and large-scale infrastructure development. Its ability to create bespoke financial solutions bridges the gap between high-capital requirements and cost-efficient access to capital, catalyzing progress in sectors where traditional financing methods often fall short.
Some investment portfolios focus on hedging public market strategies to navigate volatility. At Andoh Capital Management (ACM), we adopt a different approach. By leveraging structured finance, we break down cost-of-capital barriers, making impact-driven and infrastructure-heavy projects more accessible. This strategy not only aligns with our vision for sustainable development but also provides our Limited Partners (LPs) with unique opportunities.
Access Through the Founder’s Circle
Our LPs gain exclusive access to ACM’s structured finance strategies through the Founder’s Circle, a membership program designed for forward-thinking investors. Unlike the traditional "2 and 20" model—a 2% management fee and 20% performance fee—our LPs benefit from three revenue streams, enhancing both their returns and our alignment with their goals.

The Role of GP Discretion
At ACM, we maintain flexibility in deploying structured finance programs at either the General Partner (GP) level or the fund level. This discretion allows us to navigate regulatory controls and adhere to the specific terms of our programs. For GP stakes strategies, structured finance not only bolsters consistent management fee revenue but also optimizes capital deployment across projects.
Structured finance isn’t merely a tool—it is a catalyst for innovation and impact. By combining sophisticated financial engineering with sustainable objectives, ACM is pioneering a model that aligns economic value with environmental and social progress.
