Carbon Project Finance Advisory And Upfront Capital
Carbon development is capital intensive before the first credit is issued. Validation, implementation, MRV systems, and community and safeguards work require funding while issuance remains time-bound and subject to independent review.
FG Capital Advisors structures and coordinates upfront capital solutions that match your issuance curve and delivery risk. We advise on pre-purchase, forward offtake, streaming and royalty structures, and sponsor capital strategies, supported by a disciplined diligence posture and buyer-facing reporting covenants aligned to MRV.

Capital Structures We Advise On
Capital terms in carbon are driven by delivery risk, evidence quality, and claims governance. We structure terms so funding is aligned to what can be measured, verified, and delivered under the applicable standard.
- Pre-purchase and forward offtake: funding against future delivery, with delivery schedules, remedies, and reporting obligations.
- Streaming and royalty: capital exchanged for a defined share of future credit deliveries or revenues, with covenant discipline.
- Milestone-based tranching: staged funding linked to validation, implementation, monitoring, and verification milestones.
- Sponsor capital and strategic equity: project-level or platform-level raises with controlled use of proceeds and governance.
- Structured working capital: liquidity solutions tied to implementation and MRV cash needs where appropriate.

FAQ
Do you provide the capital directly?
No. We are an advisory firm. We structure and coordinate financing solutions with third-party buyers and capital providers, subject to diligence and approvals.
What do buyers and capital providers focus on most?
Delivery risk, evidence sufficiency, claims governance, MRV discipline, and enforceable contract terms that match the issuance and verification reality.
Can financing be structured before validation?
In some cases, yes. Terms are typically shaped by maturity and risk posture, with milestone-based controls and covenant protections tied to progress and evidence.
Do you guarantee pricing or premiums?
No. Pricing depends on project attributes, buyer policy, market conditions, and the strength of the evidence and governance posture at execution.
If you are funding development ahead of issuance, share your current project status and capital need to receive an advisory scope and commercial terms.
