How Artane Partners Sources and Screens Opportunities for Allocators
A placement agent is only as good as its filter. The value we bring to an allocator is not volume of deal flow - it is discipline about what reaches you and how it is presented. Here is how that works at Artane Partners.
Where opportunities come from
Our mandates come through relationships - operators and fund managers in Europe and North America who are raising debt or equity and want credible access to Gulf capital. We are selective at intake: we take on a mandate only when we believe it is genuinely fundable and a fit for the allocators we serve.
How we screen
Before anything reaches an investor, a mandate passes through a clear filter:
- Substance. Is the business or fund real, well-run, and at a stage where institutional capital makes sense?
- Readiness. Are the materials, the model and the data room complete enough for institutional diligence?
- Fit. Which specific allocators does this match - by sector, size, geography and mandate - and which does it not?
Mandates that do not clear the filter do not get sent. That is the point of the filter.
How we position
For the opportunities that do clear, we prepare a tight teaser, a full information memorandum, a defensible financial model and a complete data room - the standard an institutional reader expects. Then we make warm, well-judged introductions to the allocators for whom the fit is real, and we support the process to close.
Our conduct
Fees are agreed in writing and weighted to completion. We never charge advance fees, never ask anyone to move money to "release" funds, and never hold client capital. To verify us, see our credentials and verification page.
