£50M Senior Debt Facility for Central London Office Acquisition

Empire Global Finance recently supported a group of Asian and Israeli ultimate beneficial owners (UBOs) with the acquisition of a landmark £90 million office block in Central London.

The ownership was structured through a British Virgin Islands holding company and an Isle of Man trust. While this introduced a high level of complexity, we were able to secure a £50 million senior debt facility priced at 3% + base.

Our team worked hand in hand with lenders, legal advisors, and the client to design a facility that met the needs of the acquisition. The challenge lay in balancing lender expectations with the realities of a multi-jurisdictional structure. By staying close to every stage of the process, we ensured the transaction progressed smoothly and completed on terms that reflected both the strength of the asset and the confidence in the client.

This transaction is a strong example of how Empire Global Finance helps international clients achieve ambitious goals. Large-scale acquisitions require more than capital. They demand a deep understanding of different jurisdictions, trust in the process, and a partner who can bring all the moving parts together.

Alongside corporate finance, our team also advises on property development funding, securities-backed lending, and luxury asset finance. We regularly support wealthy families and international investors with the structuring of high-value transactions across real estate, yachts, jets, and art.
