CHARLOTTE, N.C., September 7, 2016 -- Capitala Group is pleased to announce an anchor closing on Capitala Private Credit Fund V, L.P., a non-SBIC fund, which includes commitments by a globally renowned asset manager and an investment grade insurance company.
Fund V's anchor closing, combined with capital available from existing investment vehicles, gives Capitala Group over $300 million in dry powder. Given the crowded market for credit fund managers, Capitala Group is pleased with the quick and sizable progress towards Fund V's investable capital target of $500 million. This anchor closing further positions Capitala Group to take advantage of its robust deal pipeline of opportunities, sourced from the firm’s offices in Charlotte, Raleigh, Fort Lauderdale, Atlanta, Los Angeles, and Washington, DC.
Capitala Group's focus continues to be on US middle market companies with $2 to $50 million in EBITDA, which offer Capitala’s investor base an opportunity to earn current returns through senior and subordinated debt investments, along with selective equity co-investments.
