Investment Profile
Targeting investments in and alongside later-stage companies and asset originators with strong business fundamentals and growth profiles.
$20 - $150M+
Initial investment
Opportunity
The trend of companies staying private longer and the rigidity of traditional asset classes (e.g. Private Equity and Private Credit) has created an opportunity to provide customized financing solutions that address the business imperatives of certain borrowers while seeking to provide investors with enhanced risk-adjusted returns.
Thesis
Tailored financing solutions designed to provide downside protection in addition to equity-like upside participation.  Given the investment team's experience investing across the capital stack, we believe we are well-positioned as a differentiated financing partner for borrowers in need of flexible financing solutions that minimize dilution.
Audience
Our capital is highly relevant for founder-owned as well as PE or VC-backed businesses seeking non-traditional financing solutions. We can invest in the form of debt, equity, or a combination of both.
