Goldfinch International – the advisory and ecosystem-building arm of Goldfinch, a London-based independent film finance and production group – brings a structured finance track record of more than $300 million deployed across 300-plus projects, a 0% default rate and an 11%–13% internal rate of return. Fablemill, a Middle East-based creative industries consultancy and production outfit, contributes regional networks across MENA built through more than 40 delivered engagements, with senior strategy expertise drawn from the ranks of McKinsey, Roland Berger and Arthur D. Little.
