Refinancing under pressure: transparency as a decisive lever

EXPO REAL 2025 made it clear: the topic of refinancing dominates the agenda. The effects of the interest rate turnaround are still having an impact - construction costs are rising, margins are falling and many projects from the low-interest phase are coming under pressure. Institutional investors and financing banks in particular are now demanding far more than optimistic business cases: they require reliable scenarios, ongoing cost transparency and forward-looking management.

Transparency is becoming the decisive lever
If you want to secure financing today, you have to be convincing - not just with your location and concept, but with data. Project managers are increasingly obliged to identify risks at an early stage, make adjustments in real time and provide financing providers with reliable figures at all times. This is the only way to secure trust and capital.

New models for a new market environment
In the midst of this market change, there is also a growing willingness to rethink financing models: interphase tranches, milestone-based payouts or hybrid models with ESG criteria are becoming increasingly important. The decisive factor here is always: data-based management replaces gut feeling. Only those who can calculate variants, simulate effects and react to deviations in real time remain capable of financing.

Our controlling tool provides project developers, investors and lenders with a platform on which costs, cash flows and risk factors remain transparent and controllable at all times.
