Private credit for the under-served champions of South-East Asia.

Yponomos Direct is reserved for qualified, professional and sophisticated investors as defined in their jurisdiction of residence — for example, Professional Investors under Schedule 1 of the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Ordinance, Accredited Investors under Section 4A of the Singapore Securities and Futures Act, High-Net-Worth Investors under Thai SEC regulations, and their equivalents in Cambodia and Europe. We do not accept retail investors.

The minimum indicative subscription per deal is USD 10,000. Individual deals may set a higher floor depending on the transaction size and the sponsor's requirements.

Each deal is structured through a bankruptcy-remote Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) incorporated in Luxembourg and administered by our regulated platform partner. The SPV extends a secured facility, typically through a Hong Kong holding intermediary for tax-treaty efficiency, to the ultimate borrower in the target jurisdiction. Every facility is secured by first-ranking collateral, personal guarantees from the ultimate beneficial owners, and standard financial covenants.

Our economics are primarily success-based. We charge the borrower an arrangement fee upon closing and a small ongoing management fee, both paid out of the facility. We may retain a share of the excess return above a preferred hurdle when relevant. We are not compensated on a marketing-fee basis by any third party.

Every facility is fully secured. In the event of a default, the security package — first-ranking pledges over shares and assets, account control over the borrower's main operating accounts, and personal guarantees of the UBOs — allows the SPV to step in and pursue recovery. We have retained specialist counsel in each of our target jurisdictions and, where relevant, dedicated workout capacity.

Yponomos Direct itself is an advisory and origination initiative, not a licensed asset manager. Each Special Purpose Vehicle used to hold a facility is administered by a regulated platform partner in Europe. All investor subscriptions are structured as private placements to qualified investors on a strict reverse-inquiry basis. We do not conduct public marketing.

Our current focus is on Thailand, Singapore, Hong Kong and Cambodia, with occasional selective exposure to European businesses through our co-origination network. We do not finance real-estate development, pure retail speculation, cryptocurrency or arms.

Preferred sectors include established food and beverage chains, healthcare and dental groups, private education, light industrial and manufacturing, B2B services with recurring revenue, consumer brands with proven traction, and logistics. We generally avoid single-outlet businesses, speculative real estate, extractive industries and any activity that raises reputational concerns.

Yes. We accept subscriptions from qualified corporate entities, family investment companies, family trusts and family offices. Standard know-your- business documentation will apply during onboarding.

Yponomos Direct is an initiative of MCS Advisory Group, a private- markets advisory and structuring firm operating between Europe and South-East Asia. MCS Advisory Group provides the operational, legal and administrative backbone behind the Yponomos Direct brand.
