Discipline
Value
Origination
Direct relationships with sponsors, advisors, and mid-market operating businesses. No syndicated buy-in, no broker-led origination, no auction processes. Pipeline built across a decade of relationships.
Diligence
Full forensic audit, sector and management interviews, asset verification, sponsor reference calls. Independent legal and tax advice on every facility. We expect to be told no during diligence as often as we say yes.
Structure
Senior, first ranking, secured against the relevant business or asset. Financial and operational covenants, equity cushion, appropriate downside protection. The borrower has more to lose than the firm.
Monitor
Monthly management calls, quarterly financials, observer rights where appropriate. Active position monitoring across the life of every facility. Issues addressed before they become problems.
