Partner with Pilgrim Capital

Unlike traditional private credit with multi-year lock-ups, Pilgrim's working capital structures typically cycle in 3-9 months. This means your capital is returned faster, allowing for compounding returns and portfolio rebalancing flexibility.

Each cycle is tied to a specific operating period—procurement, production, and sale—giving you clear visibility into when capital will be returned plus your share of profits.

Pilgrim provides institutional-quality access to Africa, Middle East, and South Asian markets where traditional investors face significant entry barriers. Our on-the-ground presence and local partnerships give you exposure to high-growth regions with strong tailwinds.

These markets offer attractive risk-adjusted returns due to structural inefficiencies in capital markets, favorable demographics, and growing middle-class consumption—all while remaining underserved by global capital.

Every deployment is backed by tangible economic activity—raw materials purchased, goods manufactured, products shipped. Your capital finances actual inventory, production, and logistics, not abstract financial engineering.

This asset-backed approach provides natural downside protection. We track physical goods movement, verify receipts and invoices, and ensure funds stay within the agreed scope throughout the operating cycle.

Our investment process begins with boots-on-the-ground verification. We physically visit facilities, inspect operations, meet management teams, and validate financial records before any capital deployment. No remote-only underwriting.

Our risk management framework includes: (1) Pre-deployment facility audits and supply chain verification, (2) Milestone-based fund releases tied to documented progress, (3) Real-time monitoring of inventory and cash flows, (4) Local partner oversight and regular check-ins, (5) Clear breach protocols with swift remediation paths.

This rigorous approach has resulted in our <1% loss rate across deployments—a testament to disciplined underwriting and active portfolio management.

From drawdown to collection, you receive transparent reporting on every deployment. Track exactly where your capital goes, how it's being used, and what returns are being generated—all with supporting documentation.

Monthly updates include fund utilization reports, milestone completion status, revenue recognition from completed cycles, and profit-sharing calculations with full formula transparency.

Pilgrim's profit-sharing model aligns with ethical finance principles—no interest, no guaranteed returns, only participation in actual profits generated. This creates true alignment between capital provider, entrepreneur, and end customers.

Your capital supports real-economy businesses creating jobs, providing essential goods and services, and building sustainable enterprises in emerging markets. Generate returns while making a tangible impact.
