Merchant Bank
A merchant bank is a financial intermediary that primarily serves business and institutional clients through deal structuring, project financing, and transaction advisory. In commercial real estate, merchant banks arrange and syndicate loans, provide valuation and feasibility analysis, and guide clients through complex acquisitions, dispositions, and development projects.
These banks typically work with developers, fund managers, investors, and institutional buyers. Services commonly include:
- Construction and project finance
- Real estate acquisition and disposal advisory
- Syndication and investor coordination
- Asset valuations and market analysis
