Our Solutions
Pretium Funding
We provide specialist litigation funding for insolvency claims valued from $200,000 and above. Our funding covers all disbursements including Counsel, expert reports, court filing fees, and any other out-of-pocket expenses — with no upfront cost to you. Pretium Funding also provides full indemnification for Security or Adverse Costs. Practitioners retain full control of the matter and work with their preferred legal team, while we remove the financial barriers to recovery. With a simple, transparent profit-sharing model, Pretium Funding is your zero-risk partner in maximising returns for creditors.
Pretium Lending
We provide company directors with fast, asset-backed loans looking to undertake a Small Business Restructuring (SBR) or Deed of company Arrangement (DOCA). Pretium Lending enables businesses to pay employee entitlements and priority debts such as superannuation, and can be used to fund practitioner fees and can even capitalise interest. With a lump sum offer the director’s position is strengthened during critical creditor negotiations. We offer flexible repayment terms of 6–12 months with approvals in days. Our tailored lending helps practitioners move matters forward with confidence.
Pretium Advance
We provide asset-backed, short-term funding for insolvency practitioners requiring funds to realise a property. This can be used to cover things such as property repairs, staging and marketing costs, statutory costs or any other expenses needed to bring a property to market - ensuring assets achieve maximum value at sale. With a simple application process, and same-day approvals, funds can be available within 24 hours with no security required from the insolvency practitioner beyond the assets in the appointment. This gives practitioners the speed and flexibility to maximise the returns to creditors without having to utilise their own funds.

What Our Clients Say
We needed short-term funding fast and Pretium delivered.
There aren’t many lenders who operate in the short-term space. Most want long-term commitments and lengthy repayment periods. Pretium made it simple.
The funds came through fast, we paid it back within weeks and the process was straightforward. I’d happily give Kovi and the team five stars.
