Who We Are

Rainwater Capital is a Montreal-based boutique strategic debt advisory and financing firm founded by Edmond Matar, a former banker with over 20 years of experience across four major Canadian financial institutions. We specialize in strategic debt structuring and financing solutions for commercial and corporate clients, helping entrepreneurs and business owners secure the capital they need to grow, expand, and thrive.

With more than 600 successful transactions completed, we have guided clients through complex financing mandates — from commercial real estate and equipment loans to working capital, bridge and term financing, management buyouts, mergers and acquisitions, franchise and R&D funding, factoring, mezzanine debt, and turnaround restructuring. Our hands-on approach begins with understanding each client's unique business model, crafting a personalized financing strategy, and negotiating the best possible terms with banks, credit unions, and private lenders.

Rainwater Capital is more than a consultant — we are a strategic partner that bridges entrepreneurial vision with financial clarity. Known for discipline, transparency, and deep lender relationships, we bring institutional-level expertise with a personalized boutique touch. Our mission is simple yet powerful: "Turning entrepreneurial energy into bankable success."
