DLM Advisory Partners: Best Structured Finance and Securitisation Team West Africa 2019

The Chairman/CEO of DLM Advisory Partners (DLMAP), Sonnie Ayere believes that prime investment opportunities abound in the West African markets – particularly in the non-bank Financial Intermediary sector. Identifying, and capitalising on, such opportunities requires local expertise and market finesse — both qualities DLMAP possesses in abundance.

Principal services provided by the DLMAP team include financial advisory and restructuring, debt capital raising – in particular, structured finance & securitisation, equity capital raising, underwriting, mergers & acquisitions and company set-up advisory.

Structured finance and securitisation deals are DLMAP’s specialties – it is worthy of note that the firm has acted as sole arranger to more than 80% of the structured finance transactions. DLMAP also boasts of executing all the securitisation transactions in Nigeria’s capital markets till date. The firm boasts strong leadership that pushes the market to accept new structures – for the benefit of its stakeholders – and executes complex transactions with simplicity and grace. DLMAP’s pioneering achievements include issuing the first floating-rate corporate bond, the first future flows securitisation transaction, structuring the first “AAA”-rated corporate bond, and realising the longest corporate bond maturity in Nigerian capital markets. Through strategic partnerships with government agencies, DLMAP offered the first Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities on behalf of the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria.
