Paying agent, exchange agent, and escrow services for buyouts, recapitalizations, minority investments, and roll up transactions.
Structured and Bespoke
Independent agency, calculation agent, and disbursement services for structured credit, litigation finance, royalty arrangements, and bespoke private capital transactions.
The Firm's Mandate
Granite acts solely as agent. The firm does not lend, invest, advise, or take a position in any transaction it administers.
Engaged by credit funds, private equity sponsors, family offices, and direct lenders that require independent and precise transaction execution outside the traditional bank trust departments.
The Granite Standard
Built for counterparties that require an agent whose only loyalty is to the engagement.
Conflict Free
The firm does not lend, invest, or advise. Its role is execution.
Discreet
Transactions and counterparties are confidential by default.
Operationally Senior
The team has executed across credit and equity transactions in size.
Responsive
The agency desk responds within one business day to all transaction inquiries.
Engage the Firm
A direct line to the agency desk.
A term sheet in hand. A successor agent appointment that needs to close on a calendar date. An escrow that has to be funded by Friday. The agency desk responds within one business day to every transaction inquiry.
