Operating Today

A working financial platform —
not a concept.

Arsenal provides specialized financing and merger & acquisition services for energy service companies. AI already runs through it: automated due diligence, portfolio monitoring, and credit decisions built on sector-specific data.

Growth Capital

Flexible financing for established service companies expanding operations, upgrading equipment, or entering new markets.

  • Working capital facilities for seasonal operations
  • Equipment financing for drilling & completion
  • Asset-based lending on specialized equipment

M&A Advisory

Acquisition financing and advisory for bolt-on purchases and regional consolidation — the same discipline we apply to our own studio acquisitions.

  • Buy-side and sell-side advisory
  • Acquisition financing structures
  • Automated diligence workflows

Wealth & Advisory

Advanced wealth management and tax strategy for business owners — the natural counterpart to buying and building owner-led companies.

  • Succession & estate structuring
  • Tax mitigation strategy
  • Legacy planning for exits
The AI Thesis

Why finance is a proving ground.

BFSI is among the top adopters of enterprise agentic AI (Grand View Research). Underwriting, servicing, compliance, and client communication are exactly the workflows agentic systems handle best — and where embedding AI changes the product itself: faster decisions, broader coverage, better terms.

−30%

Call volume and 25% lower average handle time at an asset manager after GenAI deployment in service operations.

BCG-reported case study
4 hrs

Contract drafting cut from weeks to four hours at a PE-owned insurance services firm — winning deals it would previously have lost.

+43%

McKinsey & Company

Attributed third-party findings from studied cohorts and reported case studies — correlations, not guarantees, and not projections of Arsenal's results.

Capital that thinks.

Every lending decision is a prediction. The firms that win the next decade will be the ones whose predictions get smarter with every deal.
