Finance & investment management — capital, structured and stewarded from London.
Every investment London Arena directs rests on its capital. That capital is structured, arranged and managed with institutional discipline — from the first mandate to final realisation.
One capital discipline across all six sectors.
Infrastructure, construction, energy, sustainability, critical minerals and digital infrastructure each carry their own risks, cash-flow profiles and financing markets. All six are brought under one capital discipline: the same standards of structuring, governance and reporting, wherever the investment sits.
London Arena’s finance function works alongside the sector teams from the first decision — so the capital structure is part of the investment thesis, not an afterthought.
Six disciplines, one standard.
- 01Capital structuringEquity, debt and hybrid structures designed around each investment’s risk and cash-flow profile; vehicles and risk allocation set before commitment.
- 02Project & structured financeSenior and mezzanine debt, with export-credit and development-finance participation, arranged to fit the project’s lifecycle.
- 03Investment managementPortfolio construction, asset management and performance monitoring for the investments London Arena directs, against agreed targets and limits.
- 04Transaction advisoryValuation, due-diligence coordination, negotiation and closing — from term sheet to financial close.
- 05Risk & complianceInvestment risk frameworks, anti-money-laundering and know-your-customer controls, conflicts management and regulatory reporting.
- 06Investor reportingClear, periodic reporting to investors, lenders and boards — performance, risk and ESG in one view.
From mandate to realisation.
- 01

Objectives, return targets, risk appetite and constraints agreed in writing.
- 02

The capital stack, vehicles and governance designed around the investment.

Governed at every gate.
Capital is only as sound as the controls around it. Every mandate runs inside the same governance framework that holds the rest of the firm to account.
- Conflicts of interest identified, recorded and managed
- Anti-money-laundering, sanctions and know-your-customer controls
- Board oversight of every material commitment
- Confidentiality under binding non-disclosure agreements
- Periodic reporting to investors and lenders
