The GP/LP Model Is Slowing Investors Down
A real estate developer recently came to us seeking $30 million in financing. His average accredited investor contributed $100,000. To raise the full amount, he needed 300 commitments. To get those commitments, he had to speak with nearly 1,200 potential accredited investors.
North American GP/LP Model
This is the standard GP/LP structure used in North America.
- Speak with ~1,200 potential accredited investors
- Secure ~300 LP commitments
- Personally manage all 300 investor relationships
- Expect that by year four, half may request their capital back
It is not wrong. It is simply heavy.
Then We Compared the Exact Same Project Using a Regulated Swiss Structure
The difference was immediate.
- List a bond or coupon on a European exchange within 7–8 weeks
- Raise capital from a global investor pool
- Offer liquidity through $1,000 exchange-listed coupons
- Manage zero investor relationships
Accredited investors tell us this structure feels cleaner, faster, and more scalable.
How the Swiss Structure Works.
01
Acquire a Swiss Company Regulated Through an SRO
An SRO (Self-Regulated Organisation) monitors AML and compliance. This oversight gives European institutions confidence.
02
Establish an SPV
The Special Purpose Vehicle holds assets or collateral and isolates risk.
03
Move Assets into the SPV
Collateral is transferred into the SPV. This is standard practice across European capital markets.
04
Issue Asset-Backed Bonds or Coupons
These instruments can be listed on multiple European exchanges. Investors worldwide can buy them for as little as $1,000.
05
Apply for European Bank Financing
European banks evaluate regulated Swiss structures very differently from North American GP/LP models.
Cost of Capital Comparison
North America
Primary bank: ~7 percent
Secondary lending: 10–18 percent
Annual cost on $30M:
7 percent = $2.1M
10–18 percent = $3M–$5.4M
Europe
Primary bank: 1.2–1.9 percent
Secondary lending: lower
Annual cost on $30M:
1.2–1.9 percent = $360k–$570k
Directional Savings on $30M
Year 1: $1,530,000 to $1,740,000 saved
Year 3: $4,590,000 to $5,220,000 saved
Year 5: $7,650,000 to $8,700,000 saved
Year 7: $10,710,000 to $12,180,000 saved
Year 10: $15,300,000 to $17,400,000 saved
For companies raising over $70 million in 2026, these numbers matter.
