Frequently Asked Questions
In a fast-moving capital market, developers and business owners often have only one chance to package a deal the right way. Amimar International Inc. is an advisory boutique with offices in Toronto and Montreal (Canada) that specializes in project finance consulting, private credit advising and development, and multi-level risk analysis for ventures ranging $2M-$200M. The following FAQ list answers the questions our search analytics show most frequently—helping project promoters, investors, and intermediaries understand who we are and what we do.
1
What exactly does Amimar International do?
Amimar International is a project financing advisory firm specializing in debt, equity, and structured capital solutions for mid-market developments. This includes renewable energy projects, waste-to-energy plants, hotel and resort developments, commercial real estate projects, residential real estate projects, infrastructure, healthcare, and industrial assets. We help developers secure the right capital stack, prepare investment-ready documentation, access targeted lenders and private investors, and navigate market conditions to bring projects to financial close.
2
What types of projects qualify for financing through Amimar?
Amimar works with projects that meet minimum feasibility thresholds, usually:
• Project value of $2M-$200M (approx.)
• Clear revenue model or long-term cash-flow potential
• Ownership of land, rights, or licenses (as applicable)
• Realistic equity contribution (developer’s own investment)
• Credible financial projections and market assumptions
• A clear development roadmap (permits, engineering, timelines)
We support funding across sectors such as renewable energy, commercial real estate, hospitality, infrastructure, sustainable manufacturing, data center development, and integrated fuel/energy assets.
This range is under-serviced by major banks yet too sophisticated for small-business lenders, creating a sweet spot where our longstanding private-credit expertise delivers maximum value.
3
What documents do I need when contacting Amimar?
Developers typically need the following items to begin a capital review:
• Executive summary or information memorandum
• Land ownership documentation or long-term rights
• Feasibility study or market analysis
• Permits, licenses, or environmental approvals (where required)
• Construction budget and cost breakdown
• Financial model with assumptions
• Corporate documents for the project entity
• Existing agreements are a plus (PPA/off-take, EPC, feedstock, franchise, operator)
These items significantly improve lender engagement and shorten due-diligence timelines.
4
What makes Amimar different?
We operate as an independent advisor rather than a broker-dealer. That means we are not tied to any one lender and can think "outside of the box" on your behalf. Our senior team is hands-on from day one, providing granular risk analysis, market intelligence, and full-scope financial modelling for a successful engagement.
5
Who leads the advisory team?
Managing Director Marie-Jo H. Furey brings over 25 years of experience in the private project financing sector, with 3 master's degrees and deep expertise in multi-layer risk analytics and competitive-market strategy. Her leadership ensures every mandate receives C-suite attention, not just junior analyst coverage.
6
What sectors does Amimar specialize in?
We are fairly industry-agnostic though we work more on asset-heavy, cashflow-generating development sectors, including:
• Renewable energy (solar, waste-to-energy, biogas, RNG, biomass)
• Hotel and resort development
• Multifamily and mixed-use projects
• Transportation and logistics infrastructure
• Industrial and manufacturing facilities
• Data centers and digital infrastructure
• Sustainable development and circular-economy projects
Other industries include transportation, warehousing/storage, agricultural development, tech (proptech, healthtech, agritech, IoT), and more on a case-by-case basis.
7
Can Amimar help with feasibility studies and financial modeling?
In a word - yes! We provide or coordinate feasibility studies, pro-forma financial modelling, risk assessments, sensitivity analyses, GTM strategies, and market analysis packages that are optimized and lender-ready. This significantly increases approval likelihood and reduces “back-and-forth” during due diligence.
8
Does Amimar finance projects directly?
Amimar is an advisory and structuring firm, not a lender or broker-dealer. We work with a curated global network of:
• Private credit funds
• Pension and infrastructure investors
• Commercial lenders
• Family offices
• Specialty funds (mezzanine, green financing, sustainability vehicles)
• International development partners
Our role is to prepare and structure the project properly, support optimal capital terms, and guide it through due diligence and closing.
9
How long does it take to secure financing?
Timelines vary depending on project readiness. Typical ranges:
• 30–45 days if the project is fully packaged and permits are in place
• 60–120 days for mid-stage projects requiring additional documentation
• Longer for projects needing feasibility studies, engineering, or permitting phase completion
One of the biggest accelerators is the completeness of the developer’s documentation at the time of submission.
10
What are common reasons a project is declined by lenders?
Some of the most common issues include:
• Unrealistic revenue assumptions or growth projections
• Insufficient equity contribution
• Missing permits or unclear zoning approvals
• No independent feasibility study
• Weak off-take agreements (or none at all)
• Unverified technology claims (esp. WtE, RNG, gasification)
• Cost overruns not budgeted or risk-buffered
• Developer lacks relevant experience or team depth
Part of our work is making sure these gaps are addressed before a project reaches an institutional lender or investor.
