Enzo Taddei, CFO of Global Equity International Inc., said: "On September 13, 2016, we entered into a joint venture agreement with the Billbarter Group. At the time we knew that this was a step in the right direction for our Company and, lo and behold, today we have the pleasure of announcing yet another massive step forward. Our newly formed joint venture with CPM will allow us, the Billbarter Group and GEP, to streamline capital funding projects that require a minimum of 200 million dollars and that are primarily asset and cash backed. This may not be a 'Giant step for mankind!' but it is definitely a giant step in the right direction for all parties involved. Onwards and upwards!"

Thomas Stonewell, International Relations Director of Billbarter Hungaria Zrt. said: "I am very glad that the Billbarter Group and GEP have entered into this new joint venture with CPM SARL. The Billbarter Group has been successfully sourcing capital funding for its international clientele for some years now but with our new partner, CPM, we now have exponentially expanded our ability to fund much larger projects in a much shorter timeframe. Currently, the GEP, Billbarter & CPM joint venture is processing US$1.25 billion worth of funding deals including the US$301.5 million property development project for Majestic Wealth Ltd. that GEQU publically announced on September 8th of this year. In our joint collaboration, CPM will be the lender and source of capital funding, and the Billbarter Group and GEP will assist their common clients with all facets of the agreed mandate, including carrying out extensive due diligence at the highest professional standards, to ensure that all funding transactions run as smoothly as possible. We at Billbarter firmly believe the GEP, Billbarter & CPM unity is a huge opportunity for our respective companies and also our clients. We have diligently managed to surround ourselves with very strong and experienced partners not just on the field of project financing but also in the field of project management."

Bill Alhussayni, CEO of CPM SARL said: "Our Company has been a project funder, service provider and facilitator for more than 15 years. Our team has an extensive track record and experience in business and property finance. CPM provides a wide range of traditional and "just-in-time" business finance solutions, offered after carefully evaluating potential clients' needs and requirements. Our Company´s forte is funding commercial property and real estate projects, in particular, in the UK and Europe, the Middle East and Africa. We are extremely happy to have negotiated and signed a joint venture agreement with GEP and the Billbarter Group as there is a lot of synergy between our companies, hence we firmly believe that we can complete many multi-million dollar deals together in the very near future."
