Investment Philosophy

Focus on Core Middle Market

$10–100M

We target companies with $10–$100 million in EBITDA, a segment we believe offers superior risk-adjusted returns, stronger documentation and better access to information.

Senior Secured Lending Strategy

Senior-secured lending to performing, private equity-backed companies. A global focus supported by an integrated investment team across North America, Developed Asia and Europe.

Delivering Attractive, Risk-Adjusted Returns
