Direct Lending
At KNG, we specialize in providing bespoke direct lending solutions tailored to meet the unique requirements of corporate borrowers across diverse sectors and geographies. Our direct lending platform is designed to serve clients seeking flexible, non-bank financing options, particularly in scenarios where traditional capital markets do not suffice.
We leverage our deep market expertise and expansive global investor network to originate, structure, and execute private credit transactions. These span senior secured loans, unitranche facilities, subordinated debt, and other tailored instruments that support growth, acquisition, recapitalisation, and liquidity strategies.
Our focus is on companies that require specialized financing, including small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and mid-market corporates, often operating in niche or underbanked segments.
Our track record includes a broad array of successful transactions ranging from €5 million to over €150 million in size, with the proven capability to arrange significantly larger financings. We maintain a strong presence in Europe, North America, and LatAm, delivering scalable capital solutions aligned with both borrower objectives and investor mandates. KNG continues growth in new geographies, with particular focus in Africa, as an addition to our EM trading desk.
KNG’s team brings a differentiated approach through integrated origination, structuring, and distribution capabilities. This allows us to act swiftly and decisively, providing certainty of execution and competitive terms. Our solutions are anchored in strategic alignment with our clients, ensuring optimal risk-adjusted returns and robust capital deployment opportunities.
Whether you're a corporate borrower navigating complex capital needs or an institutional investor seeking access to proprietary deal flow, KNG’s direct lending practice offers the experience, network, and insight to deliver results.
