Sourcing Investment

Turncoat has relationships with investors from a variety of backgrounds and with different investment goals.  We can help you source equity or debt for your production.

Negotiating Cheaper Financing

Our seasoned bankers are experts in finance - in particular, FX and Interest Rate hedging.  In addition to reducing your interest costs, we can improve the hedging rates you achieve, which will increase your net cash to production.

On average we expect to generate a saving of 0.8% of budget on FX hedging alone. On a USD 20mn film, this would mean an additional USD 160k upfront cash available to production.

We only get paid if we save you money.

Making Things Clearer

As we help you negotiate we will provide you with transparency in your pricing, explain to you your cashflow

Lenders

We work with all types of lender to improve returns in transactions and reduce risk. 

We can help you 

• find capital partners
• capture more value from hedging (or increase your revenue share if you use an intermediary)
• use your balance sheet more efficiently to increase returns.

Equity

Our work with equity investors includes finding projects that match investment objectives, optimising transaction structure and analysing and improving return scenarios.

We can provide you with exclusive access to talent and projects that match your branding goals.

Reducing Risk

We provide training and analysis on reducing financial risk to producers and completion guarantors and can show the potential impact of FX and interest rate moves on production finances.

Our involvement in a production invariably makes cashflow more predictable and increases cash available to the producer so that more is available for contingency.
