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 between $5 million and $100 million. The following FAQ list answers the questions our search analytics show most frequently—helping sponsors, investors, and intermediaries understand who we are and what we do.
1
What exactly does Amimar International do?
Amimar International is a project finance consulting and private-credit advisory firm. We build investor-ready documentation, perform forensic risk assessments, and partner with project developers in hospitality, data centers, renewable energy, power, industrial, equipment and commercial real-estate projects. By bridging the gap between project sponsors and global debt and equity investors, we position clients for faster approvals and optimal project development terms.
2
Which industries and deal sizes do you serve?
We concentrate on middle-market transactions between $5 million and $100 million, primarily in real estate, hospitality, power generation, industrial equipment, and speciality infrastructure. 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 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.

Who leads the advisory team?
Managing Director Marie-Jo H. Furey brings nearly 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.
5
How does your Project Development Consulting process work?
Our process typically follows six milestones: 1) diagnostic review, 2) feasibility and/or market studies, 3) integrated financial model, 4) investor-grade documentation, 5) targeted capital sourcing (if necessary), and 6) closing support. Each stage is tailored to the sponsor’s timeline and draw schedule, ensuring documentation and capital formation run in parallel, not sequentially.
6
What documents do investors expect before funding?
Institutional investors require a comprehensive package that usually includes a bankable feasibility study, market analysis, 5 to 10-year cash-flow model, risk-sensitivity analysis, environmental and social assessments, management bios, and a detailed development budget. Amimar prepares—or vets—each element to global project-finance standards so you clear due diligence the first time.
7
How does your risk-assessment methodology improve funding odds?
Our proprietary forensic model scores regulatory, operational, market, and internal/external risks. Weak spots are identified so that our clients can address them (through covenants, contingency budgets, or alternative contractual structures) before the package hits an investor’s desk, materially increasing approval probability and accelerating credit-committee turnarounds.
8
What are typical costs and success fees?
Advisory retainers (or flat-rate packages) cover upfront analysis, while success fees are performance-based and payable only after funds are disbursed. Because every mandate is unique, fee structures are quoted following an initial project documentation review (at no charge to our clients) and discussion, and aligned to industry norms for middle-market project financing.
