About Brockport
Specialist advice for transactions that do not fit neatly into conventional solutions.
Brockport is an independent financial advisory firm focused on complex cross-border financing and risk solutions.
We work with corporates, contractors, financial institutions and public-sector clients to structure financing, credit enhancement and risk capacity around the commercial realities of international transactions.
Our work combines institutional experience, international relationships and hands-on transaction execution across emerging and frontier markets.
Our principles
Structure before product
Independent
Solutions are driven by the transaction rather than a predetermined provider.
Commercial
Structures must work within the client’s underlying commercial reality.
Institutionally informed
We understand how banks, insurers, ECAs and other institutions evaluate transactions.
Execution focused
Advice matters when it moves a transaction toward implementation.
Our focus
Most transactions stall in the same few places.
International transactions frequently involve more than a borrower and a lender. Contractors need financing for buyers. Corporates require working capital. Projects consume bonding capacity. Banks encounter country and credit limits. Institutional providers have risk appetite but require transactions to fit defined mandates.
Brockport works across these interfaces through its five core practices.
01
Export, Agency & Sovereign Finance
Financing for the buyer of an international contract
02
Trade & Working Capital Finance
Liquidity released from receivables and trade flows
03
Surety & Bonding
Bonding capacity beyond existing bank lines
04
Credit Enhancement & Risk Solutions
Exposure moved to institutions able to carry it
05
Institutional Advisory & Capacity Building
Products, underwriting and market capability for institutions
Our approach
Structure before product.
Brockport does not begin with a predetermined financing product or institutional provider. We begin with the transaction: the commercial objective, the execution constraint, where the risk sits, what capacity is required and which institutions are positioned to provide it.
Independent advice
The transaction determines the institution.
Brockport is independent of any single bank, insurer, ECA, surety or financing provider. That allows us to assess a requirement across different forms of financing and risk capacity and engage institutions according to the needs of the transaction.
Where specialist partners bring relevant capacity or expertise, Brockport works collaboratively while remaining focused on the client’s underlying commercial objective.
International reach
Across markets and jurisdictions.
Brockport operates from Canada and the United Arab Emirates, working across Africa, the Middle East, Asia and other international markets to connect clients, capital and risk across jurisdictions and structure executable cross-border transactions.
Leadership
Institutional experience. Commercial perspective.

Working with Brockport
Senior-led. Specialist by design.
Brockport operates through a focused, senior-led model. Clients work directly with experienced professionals responsible for understanding the transaction, developing the structure and coordinating the relevant institutional relationships.
Where a mandate requires complementary technical, sector or geographic expertise, Brockport works with selected international partners and specialist advisors appropriate to the transaction.
This model allows Brockport to assemble the capabilities required for a mandate while maintaining senior involvement and clear responsibility throughout execution.
