Mezzanine
Debt
Mezzanine debt ranks behind the senior bank and is subordinated to the bank’s position. The facility incurs an interest cost, usually not linked to the profitability of the project, though if structured as a participating mortgage it has both an interest and profit-share component.

Equity
Dorado co-invests alongside the core equity provided by the project sponsors. On some occasions this equity investment is a ‘follow-on’ from an earlier involvement as a lender to a project. At other times it facilitates a core buy-and-hold position in a long-term asset.
