SAGA Capital specializes in structuring deals to satisfy the financing needs of small to mid size financial institutions, entrepreneurs, and/or high net worth individuals. In many cases, this usually means raising capital via new, low-cost US-based or offshore structures; or tapping financing for specific needs via government loans; or collateralizing certain types of assets.

SAGA Capital seeks to capitalize existing but underfunded operations by means analyzing all the data available and proposing solutions that involve exotic asset classes and/or nontraditional structures not available outside large scale investment banking operations.

There is a voluminous quantity of political and psychological information available on a worldwide basis that can impact in a minute by minute basis all the potential solutions to a problem. Our approach to data is unlimited and “top down”, meaning working down from the macro to the micro with the insight gained from SAGA’s vision.

With our approach, our clients gain exposure to many opportunities in the US or in some selected markets, or in asset classes that they would not typically learn about from their usual financial advisors. We add value by tailoring these solutions to the specific needs of our clients.

Why is it that well-known large investment banks don’t actively pursue some of these opportunities? The reasons are simple: 1) they are unwilling to dedicate senior staff to structure one-off deals in exotic, and many times unproven, asset classes; 2) they need to move through slow & bureaucratic new products & compliance committees before taking “one-off deals”, 3), most of these deals are initially perceived as small contributors to the total dollar returns they need to complete quarterly “deal quotas” and “bonus pools”, and 4) as a consequence of the credit crunch and TAPR disbursements, at least in the US there is not simply the “financial” incentive to pursue non-traditional, alternative sources of income for most large banks.
