We buy the debt others write off — and rebuild the balance sheet that follows.
BRBG acquires non-performing loans and leads coordinated balance sheet restructurings for banks, development finance institutions, and distressed companies across Ghana and Africa.
What We Do
We transform distressed corporate situations from liabilities into restructured, performing assets through four core capabilities.
NPL Acquisition
We purchase non-performing corporate loans directly from banks and DFIs, providing immediate liquidity and clearing constrained balance sheets.
Mid-Cap Restructuring
We lead complex capital structure reorganizations for mid-market enterprises, aligning debt service capacity with operational reality.
Debt-for-Equity & Growth Capital
Where appropriate, we convert acquired debt positions into equity and inject fresh growth capital to fund operational turnarounds.
Creditor Coordination
We act as the lead coordinator in multi-creditor situations, organizing fragmented syndicates to execute cohesive recovery strategies.
How We Work
Diligence & Valuation
Rigorous assessment of underlying collateral, cash flow generating capacity, and structural impediments.
Acquisition & Transfer
Clean, discreet purchase of the exposure, assuming full legal and economic rights from the exiting lender.
Stabilization & Restructuring
Implementing a consensual restructuring plan with the borrower, adjusting terms to match realistic business prospects.
Capital Injection (If Required)
Providing new money to address critical working capital shortfalls or high-ROI capex needs.
Active Monitoring & Exit
Ongoing governance participation until the position is refinanced or the company achieves a strategic exit.
Why We're Different
Certainty Over Delay
We provide banks and DFIs with immediate resolution for troubled assets, replacing protracted internal workout processes with upfront certainty and clean balance sheets.
Alignment, Not Extraction
We seek to rehabilitate, not liquidate. Our returns are driven by returning companies to health, preserving jobs, and maintaining critical economic infrastructure.
Development-Aligned Outcomes
By unblocking constrained capital and rescuing viable enterprises, our interventions directly support broader economic stability and growth objectives in our target markets.
