Nuwan D.

CFA Charterholder with 18 years of experience building investment-grade financial models for PE funds, startups, deal teams, and renewable energy projects — delivering the models that help clients raise capital, close deals, and make faster decisions. I work with founders, fund managers, investment teams, and CFOs who need financial models that are technically rigorous, easy to present to investors, and built to a professional standard. Whether you need a DCF valuation, an LBO acquisition model, a PE fund waterfall, a project finance model, or a full FP&A forecasting system — I build models that are clear, auditable, and client-ready. WHAT I CAN BUILD FOR YOU Financial Models: DCF, LBO, leveraged buyout, 3-statement integrated models, M&A transaction models, comparable company analysis, precedent transaction comps, sensitivity and scenario analysis. Fund and PE Models: GP/LP waterfall distribution models, carried interest structures, PE fund models, NAV calculations, LP reporting, portfolio company valuation, fund feasibility studies. Project Finance: Solar and renewable energy project finance models, DSCR and debt sizing models, infrastructure feasibility, PPA revenue models, debt structuring and sensitivity analysis. Investor Materials: Investor pitch decks, Confidential Information Memoranda (CIMs), teasers, investment memos, IC presentations, data room preparation, lender presentations. FP&A and CFO Support: Budgeting and forecasting, rolling cash flow models, startup runway models, KPI dashboards, board reporting packs, management accounts, variance analysis, unit economics, and pricing models. WHY CLIENTS CHOOSE ME I am a CFA Charterholder and CGMA (CIMA) with a background spanning private equity (co-founder of a special situations PE platform), investment banking-style deal work (M&A transactions averaging USD 20M+, including USD 100M+ deals), fractional CFO engagements, and large corporate finance roles including a USD 1.5B multinational group and a USD 50M IFC funding facility. I have worked on both sides of the table — as a fund manager building models for investor committees, and as a company executive preparing materials for lenders and investors. That dual perspective means the models I build are structured the way sophisticated investors and lenders actually read them. I work at a senior level but price competitively compared to US and UK finance professionals — giving clients access to institutional-quality deliverables at a fraction of the cost of an investment banking associate or a Big Four consultant. HOW I WORK Every engagement starts with a clear scope. I provide a model outline before starting, deliver in stages with commentary, and include a walkthrough call on completion. Models are built with clear structure, colour-coded inputs, and full documentation so you can run scenarios yourself after delivery. Typical turnaround: 3 to 7 business days for most financial models; 1 to 2 weeks for complex multi-entity or fund models. If you are raising capital, evaluating an acquisition, structuring a fund, or need a financial model that will stand up to investor scrutiny — send me a message and I will confirm scope and timeline within 24 hours.
