Our market leadership position in the core areas of debt and equity capital markets and M&A advisory, amassing a collective transaction volume of over LKR 100 Bn in the past 24 months,  draw heavily from three pillars that are fundamental to CAL’s approach

Our navigation of the challenging post-war economic landscape, helping raise over LKR 11 Bn for our clients with a c. 20% market share in public equity issuances, is ample testament to this.

Whether you are a fast-growing firm looking to raise external capital for the first time or a well-established listed corporate seeking to raise expansion capital, our seasoned team of Investment Banking experts are well-poised to structure a transaction in line with your distinct financing requirements. We have also developed a deep appreciation and keen understanding of family-run companies over the years, which allows us to assist family members in smoothly navigating the life-transforming affair of raising external capital.

CAL has emerged as the undisputed leader in the debt capital markets space in Sri Lanka, on the back of its strong, ongoing relationships with the country’s top corporates. In successive financial years, 2018 & 2019, CAL has cumulatively commanded a c. 26% market share while helping raise over LKR 60 Bn for its clients.

Our consistency in debt issuances, primarily listed debentures, is shaped by the unique outlook of our debt capital professionals. They adopt an informed yet intuitive approach in understanding investor appetites and market movements, helping you identify the ideal timing as well as the optimal structured product mix that meets your specific financing requirements. Thereafter, our dedicated team of fixed income sales experts will actively and swiftly match these securities with our extensive network of institutional, high-net-worth and retail-oriented investors.

We continuously strive to offer new and innovative products to the market, with the objective of more closely meeting your exact requirements. This has led us to structure the first low-coupon debenture (for Hatton National Bank PLC), the first zero-coupon debenture (for Alliance Finance PLC), and the first single-digit interest rate debenture (for DFCC Bank PLC).
