DETAILED OVERVIEW OF THE MATTER
A broker who introduces a financeable transaction to AltFunds Global earns 10% of AltFunds Global's advisory fee on every closed transaction, including introductions made broker to broker. The compensation is set out in writing and paid through an independent escrow arrangement, not on a handshake.
The structure exists to answer the single concern brokers raise most often: that they introduce a deal and are never paid. Under this model, the broker's entitlement is documented before the deal proceeds, and the payment mechanism does not depend on trusting a counterparty's word.
Timing is stated plainly. AltFunds Global's advisory fee is success-linked. AltFunds Global is paid when the funding source (the bank, lender, or private equity firm) sends the money. The broker's 10% is a share of that fee, so it is paid in the same event, through escrow. Structured transactions move on standard timelines of 20 to 120 banking days, depending on the bank, the jurisdiction, and the state of the file.
CONTEXT AND IMPLICATIONS
This matter is relevant to brokers, intermediaries, and counterparties because referral compensation in structured finance is frequently informal and frequently disputed. A written, escrow-protected entitlement reduces that risk for the introducing party.
The importance of any individual arrangement depends on the documents that govern it. Brokers should distinguish between a verbal promise, a written referral agreement, and a funded transaction that triggers payment. Only the last produces a fee.
