The SAVI Capital Model™ in the Southern Cone: Origination Before Capital. A Screening Standard for Private Companies in Argentina, Chile and Uruguay, the Structure under Which Capital of Any Origin Can Own Them under the Model, and the Role of an Independent Originator

Private companies in Argentina, Chile and Uruguay sit below the reach of the capital that could own them. The largest official lender to the developing world has cut its sovereign lending by about ninety percent since 2016 and moved to corporate equity; its equity vehicles exist and have not reached the private small or medium company in Latin America. Development banks reach such companies through banks and funds; the United States rebuilt its development finance corporation in 2025; Gulf capital enters behind local sponsors. The three countries admit private foreign capital and, in 2025 and 2026, drew a line against foreign state control. This paper argues that origination, not capital, is the binding constraint, and publishes a screening standard for private companies in the three countries together with the record its proprietary origination platform has produced: 1,198 companies, 431 of them tier A by a written rule, with every fact labelled by how it is known. It sets out the structure under which capital of any origin can own such companies under The SAVI Capital Model: a locally managed vehicle with minority providers, the Model's terms in each charter, equity without acquisition debt, an arm's-length guard on purchases from a shareholder's industry, the Minimum Return stated by holding period, and verification by an independent accountant. It prices the Model for four classes of capital with the fourth paper's arithmetic, 13.1% against 18.4% on the deal, and states the role of The SAVI Group, for companies raising foreign capital and for capital providers of any origin, as originator and verifier, paid for the work as it is delivered. A pilot of USD 50 to 150 million closes the paper. It promises no return.
