First questions

What we will ask first

  1. 01Which bank or lender, and in which country?
  2. 02What has the bank asked for, or decided?
  3. 03What security or guarantees are involved?
  4. 04What deadline applies?

The approach

How WONE Global usually approaches it

  1. Step 1Read the bank's request or the loan terms.
  2. Step 2Prepare the documents and answers the bank expects.
  3. Step 3Bring in banking professionals in each country involved.
  4. Step 4Negotiate, restructure or find an alternative lender.

What is needed varies by country and by matter. Your WONE Global professional confirms the work, timing and fees before anything starts.

Across borders

Complications to check

Issues to assess when more than one country is involved. They are prompts, not conclusions about any country's law.

  • Digital asset regulatory statusA token or custodial structure has different legal classifications across markets
  • Real estate title securityA foreign lender needs enforceable real estate rights and local registration
  • Different laws of contractParties sign one commercial agreement but disagree which law governs duties, damages and remedies
  • Capital movement limitsAn investment generates profits that cannot readily be repatriated
