Qualifying Criteria
We aim to support Qualifying Companies in their exports to and investments in overseas markets.
A Qualifying Company is one that has a substantial presence in Singapore, with at least three global or regional decision-making functions based in the country. We will consider the number and profile of staff employed in each of these functions as part of our assessment.
To determine if an export, asset or project is eligible for funding from Clifford Capital, we require certain qualifying criteria to be met.
* If the total project equity exceeds US$300 million, the minimum ownership threshold for the QC reduces to 10%
In each of the above cases, our financing amount may be further subject to any applicable constraints on individual ticket sizes.
We also consider projects that may not fully satisfy the conditions set out above on a case by case basis, taking into consideration the nexus to Singapore.
