Method
How a mandate runs.
From the sponsor’s point of view. The arc is intentionally controlled — it is designed to surface inconsistencies early, and to improve document readiness before a matter is advanced to a lender.
Step 01 / IV
Brief.
The sponsor presents the mandate. The firm scopes asset, capital purpose, time-frame, and counterparty position.
- Asset scope
- Capital purpose
- Time-frame
Step 02 / IV
Diligence.
Identity, facility purpose, financial consistency, security pathway, and existing-bank position are tested before the file moves. Where findings cannot be reconciled, the file is held or declined.
- Identity & control
- Financial consistency
- Security pathway
Step 03 / IV
Structure.
Credit facility structuring, security packaging, covenant design, and the institutional documentation the lender will read.
- Facility structuring
- Covenant design
- Documentation
Step 04 / IV
Close.
The firm accompanies the file through credit decision and drawdown by the lender. The lender closes; the firm runs the file to that point.
- Credit decision
- Drawdown
- Hand-off

Section 04 · Pre-engagement
Pre-engagement screening.
Before accepting an engagement, LeXCapital conducts a preliminary screening of the parties, transaction purpose, supporting information, and any issues that may affect the scope or suitability of the proposed work.
- 01
Internal
Conflicts.
Active and dormant mandates, counterparts, and sponsor groups are reviewed before any substantive discussion. Where a competing interest exists, the matter is declined or recused.
- 02
Mandate
Authority.
Who is instructing, and on whose behalf. Mandate authority and signatory position are confirmed before any document or commercial position is received.
- 03
Structure
Ownership & control.
The persons who ultimately own and control the proposed sponsor. Group structure and shareholding are reviewed at a working level appropriate to the matter.
- 04
Commercial
Transaction purpose.
What the capital is for, how it is to be repaid, and the commercial logic that supports the request. Matters without a defensible purpose are not progressed.
- 05
Review
Source information.
The basis on which the capital, asset, or sponsor position has been built. Reviewed for plausibility and internal consistency.
- 06
Indicators
Sanctions, PEP & adverse signals.
Public sources are reviewed for sanctions, politically-exposed positions, and adverse-media indicators. Findings are weighted, not absolute.
- 07
Handling
Document sensitivity.
How material is to be received, where it is to be held, and who has visibility. Channels and retention are agreed before sensitive items are shared.
- 08
Decision
Scope acceptance.
Whether the matter is one LeXCapital can defensibly advise on. Some enquiries are referred onward; some are paused; some proceed to a scope letter.
Posture. This is a working screen, not a certification. It exists to clarify whether a matter is one LeXCapital can credibly carry, and on what terms. LeXCapital does not lend, accept deposits, hold client funds, or provide legal, tax, banking, or regulatory opinions.
05 — Section
Enquiry
Send a brief, not a meeting request.
Where appropriate, LeXCapital may contact you to request further information or arrange an initial discussion. Engagements are accepted only after scope review and conflict checks.
