Alpha Investment Holdings Group
At Alpha Investment Holdings Group (AIHG), we deliver flexible financing solutions for Greek enterprises, ranging from direct business loans to profit-linked repayment models and joint venture loan structures. Our services empower SMEs, corporates, and cross-border ventures in Greece to secure sustainable growth capital—without sacrificing ownership.
Greece has transformed its economy in recent years, emerging as a resilient and attractive destination for investment. With its strategic location at the crossroads of Europe, Asia, and Africa, Greece serves as a gateway for global trade. The country’s membership in the EU and Eurozone, coupled with a recovering economy, makes it an ideal environment for growth-oriented businesses.
Key industries such as tourism, shipping, real estate, renewable energy, agriculture, and technology are thriving, supported by government reforms and EU funding initiatives. However, Greek companies—particularly SMEs and joint ventures—often face challenges in accessing financing.
Traditional Greek banks maintain high collateral requirements and restrictive lending practices, while equity investors typically demand significant ownership stakes. These limitations leave a financing gap for ambitious businesses that want to expand while preserving control.
AIHG bridges this gap by offering investment loan services designed for Greece’s evolving market:
Beyond Greece, AIHG also provides investment loan services in Portugal, Finland, Norway, Austria, Poland, Ukraine, Malaysia, Singapore, Cambodia, and South Korea, allowing clients to expand locally while accessing global diversification.

AIHG directs capital into Greece’s most strategic and resilient industries, recognizing that each sector has its own financial realities, risk cycles, and growth opportunities. Our loan models are designed to match these sector-specific needs, ensuring that businesses can access capital that fits their operational cash flows and long-term objectives—without compromising ownership or governance.
With EU climate targets driving demand, Greece has committed to expanding wind, solar, and hydropower capacity. AIHG finances renewable energy companies and projects by offering profit-linked and joint venture loans that align repayments with electricity output and energy sales. These structures allow energy firms to expand capacity while maintaining ownership.
Greek agriculture is famous worldwide for products such as olive oil, wine, seafood, and fresh produce. However, many agribusinesses struggle with seasonal revenue cycles. AIHG offers profit-linked loans where repayments are tied to harvest yields or export sales, ensuring farmers and processors can scale production without facing unsustainable repayment pressures. For export-driven agritech ventures, we also provide direct loans to fund expansion into international markets.
The demand for private hospitals, specialized clinics, biotech research, and medical devices is increasing across Greece, both for domestic needs and medical tourism. AIHG provides direct loans for established healthcare operators with steady revenues, while also supporting joint venture loans for biotech and life science research requiring consortium-style funding.
Greece’s start-up ecosystem—particularly in fintech, e-commerce, gaming, and digital services—is rapidly growing, supported by EU innovation funding and a young, highly skilled workforce. For these high-growth but cash flow-volatile sectors, AIHG structures profit-linked loans, allowing repayment schedules to scale with revenue growth. In cases of international collaboration, joint venture loans may also be applied.
Greece is home to the world’s largest commercial fleet, and shipping continues to be a cornerstone of its economy. Our loan services support fleet modernization, port upgrades, logistics centers, and shipyard investments. Given the scale and capital intensity of maritime projects, AIHG often structures direct loans and joint venture loans with governance frameworks that balance the interests of multiple stakeholders.
From residential housing to commercial complexes and tourism-driven developments, real estate is a sector where demand continues to rise in Greece—particularly in Athens, Thessaloniki, and the islands. AIHG provides direct loans for real estate developers and construction companies with predictable rental or sales income. For larger projects, we structure joint venture loans with international co-financing partners.
Tourism accounts for nearly 25% of Greece’s GDP, making it one of the most powerful engines of the economy. AIHG provides flexible loan structures for hotels, resorts, luxury villas, cruise services, and tourism-related infrastructure. Since revenue cycles in tourism are seasonal, we design profit-linked loan models that align repayment schedules with peak summer and holiday periods, easing financial strain during off-peak months.
Loan Models by Sector
•Direct Loans – Suited for real estate, healthcare, and shipping, where cash flows are predictable and collateral assets are strong.
•Profit-Linked Loans – Ideal for tourism, agriculture, and retail, where revenues are cyclical or seasonal, allowing repayment terms to adapt to cash inflows.
•Joint Venture Loans – Best for renewable energy, infrastructure, and large-scale logistics projects, where governance frameworks, risk-sharing, and multi-party financing are essential.

Background:
A family-owned hotel chain in Crete sought €8M to renovate existing properties and expand into luxury eco-resorts. Traditional banks demanded collateral equal to 150% of loan value and rigid monthly repayment schedules that didn’t align with seasonal revenues.
AIHG Solution:
We structured a profit-linked loan, where repayments were tied directly to occupancy rates and seasonal revenue inflows. This allowed the hotel to match repayments with its strongest revenue months, without overextending during off-season periods.

Background:
A renewable energy developer in Thessaly required €25M to expand its wind farm capacity. The project was capital-intensive, and equity investors sought significant ownership stakes that the developers were unwilling to give up.
AIHG Solution:
We structured a joint venture loan model, pooling capital from multiple international co-financiers while maintaining governance frameworks under Greek and EU law. Repayments were linked to electricity sales to the national grid, creating a transparent and predictable repayment stream.
Result:
Compliance aligned with EU Green Deal objectives, enhancing project credibility
Background:
A mid-sized Greek shipping company needed €12M to modernize part of its fleet to meet stricter EU environmental regulations. Conventional financing options were limited, and lenders required excessive collateral.
AIHG Solution:
AIHG provided a direct loan facility, structured around the company’s existing cash flows from international shipping contracts. Repayments were scheduled in line with freight revenues, with insurance-backed guarantees to reduce risk.
Result:
Improved competitiveness in international shipping routes.
Background:
A leading olive oil cooperative in the Peloponnese required €5M to scale production and enter new export markets in Asia. Seasonal harvest cycles made traditional loan repayment schedules unworkable.
AIHG Solution:
