Impact

We bring sophisticated credit strategies, typically only available from mega funds, to smaller companies and a wider range of investors. This allows us to support more companies in their efforts to expand, innovate and support local communities through job creation.

Approach

We apply a rigorous bottom-up approach to credit underwriting, without losing sight of the full picture. As business opportunities, complexities and global competition grow ever stronger, we believe proactive management is increasingly important for what was previously a passive asset class.

Focus

In the aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis, banks began to reduce exposure to smaller companies leaving them starved for capital. We are working to fill the void for these companies that make up the backbone of the economy and local communities.

We provide senior loans to partners looking for a single capital provider capable of scaling in tandem with their growth initiatives.
