Capital Formation

Members of Capital Formation Marketing’s (CFM) consortium have represented many of the world’s leading financial centers, offshore financial jurisdictions as well as institutional and high net worth investors from the Arabian Gulf. Two leading members of CFM’s consortium are Victor Webb of Marston Webb International and Paul Homsy, a principal of Crescent Asset Management.

Mr. Webb is a recognized pioneer in international media and public relations with contacts in major financial markets such as New York, London, Geneva and Hong Kong.

Mr. Homsy is a leading authority on Middle East finance and Islamic Banking. He has over 30 years of experience in the Middle East and practiced law in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia as a managing partner of Sidley and Austin’s former office there.

Mr. Homsy has significant experience in the development, structuring and financing of several billion dollars of transactions in a wide range of conventional and Islamic financial products, including private equity funds, trade finance funds, real estate funds, leasing funds, and many Shari’ah compliant structures. Mr. Homsy has helped arrange financing for both direct investments and alternative investment vehicles from the Arabian Gulf.

Our Capital Formation team continuously searches for and diligently vets all proposals. Currently, CFM has presented four top-tier projects to our Middle East and London contacts.
