About us
Universal Exports Finance is a UK-based firm led by a group of experts with a strong business development network and deep experience in financing solutions, corporate finance, and corporate development. Leveraging years of transactional and advisory expertise, the team brings exceptional stakeholder management capabilities to complex infrastructure, commodities, renewable energy, and real estate investment initiatives — with a strategic focus on Latin America. We work at the intersection of capital, strategy, and execution to support impactful, cross-border development.
Our market:
Latin America
Latin America is Universal Exports Finance’s core market — a region offering compelling risk-adjusted opportunities, deep demand for infrastructure and energy investment, and strong alignment with the mandates of ECAs and other financial investors. Its evolving macroeconomic landscape, improving credit fundamentals, and increasingly favourable legal and regulatory frameworks for foreign capital make it an ideal environment for deploying structured financing solutions. We prioritise markets that match the strategic focus and growing appetite of export credit agencies, development finance institutions, and private investors seeking impactful, bankable projects.
Our competitive advantage:
Corporate & Project Finance
We specialise in designing and executing innovative and efficient financing structures for complex infrastructure, energy, commodities, and strategic corporate investments. Based in London — one of the world’s foremost financial centres — we maintain strong relationships with top-tier international banks, multilateral institutions and local financial partners across Latin America.
ā
Our expertise spans not only project finance but also corporate finance and development — supporting M&A execution, working capital strategies, and structured solutions for commodity-linked transactions. We coordinate closely with rating agencies, negotiate with global lenders, and blend capital sources to deliver bespoke, bankable financing packages. Export Credit Agencies (ECAs) such as UKEF, SACE, Bpifrance, and others remain a key part of our toolkit, complemented by a broader, flexible strategy focused on aligning international capital with high-impact opportunities in Latin America and beyond.
End-to-end infrastructure delivery. Built to win.
At Universal Exports Finance, we don’t just support infrastructure — we make it happen. With a powerful network of world-class engineering firms, designers, and contractors, we manage every stage of an infrastructure project’s lifecycle, from concept to execution. We act as strategic stakeholder managers — aligning the right players, unlocking financing, and making sure complex projects move forward with speed and certainty.
ā
We work with top-tier construction companies, international lenders, and specialist advisors to de-risk every step of delivery. From feasibility to funding, we lead with precision and close with confidence.
ā
We are especially focused on the development of iconic sports and cultural arenas, transformative rail infrastructure, resilient hospitals and schools, and essential water and sanitation systems. These are projects that shape cities, improve lives, and drive national development — and we know how to deliver them.
Whether you need to assemble a delivery consortium, or secure financing that fits — we get it done. Latin America is ready for the next generation of infrastructure. And so are we.
Harvesting potential:
Latin America’s commodity frontier
Latin America stands as one of the world’s richest regions for commodities — from precious metals like gold and silver, to soft commodities such as coffee and soy, to abundant fisheries, and vast reserves of oil and gas. This wealth presents extraordinary opportunities to develop, scale, and dominate global markets.
ā
At Universal Exports Finance, we know that these commodities are more than just resources — they are the backbone of economic growth and regional transformation. The mining sector’s precious metals, the booming agricultural exports, the thriving fishing industries, and the critical energy reserves all represent strategic assets ripe for development.
ā
With unmatched local expertise and a keen understanding of global demand, we recognize and act on the full potential of Latin America’s commodities. We’re committed to unlocking these sectors’ value, driving sustainable growth, and positioning our partners to capitalize on one of the world’s most dynamic resource frontiers.
Our commitment with the future:
Renewable Energies
Universal Exports Finance operates under the highest standards of corporate social responsibility, focusing on investments that are not only financially viable, but also have a positive impact on the environment and society. Our vision is to be a leader in promoting a greener and more sustainable future for Latin America, driving projects that not only fuel the economy, but also care for the planet. For this reason, we are particularly interested in the financing of renewable energy projects, specifically solar and wind generation projects.
