Finding known Lenders
If you know the name of a Lender, the Global Search bar is your fastest route.
For example, searching for “Ares Capital” will take you directly to the Lender’s profile, showing their credit portfolio, sector exposure and linked sponsors.
Exploring the Lender landscape
When your goal is discovering or benchmarking Lenders, navigate to the Lenders tab to apply filters across all profiles.
Each profile aggregates information on Credits, exposure, sectors, sponsors, and regions, so you can explore the private credit market from multiple angles.
You get a wide range of criteria available to filter Lenders on, including:
- Lender Attributes: Filter by total debt exposure or number of credits
- Median Debt Quantum: Find those that lend at a given size (e.g. >£50m or <€25m)
- Credit Types: Search for specific lending products (e.g. Senior Debt, Unitranche, Mezzanine)
- Sectors & Tags: Identify lenders active in specific industries or niches with natural language tags (e.g. manufacturing, software, healthcare)
- Geography: Focus on where portfolio companies are based(e.g. DACH, US Midwest)
- Investors: Find the preferred lenders of private equity sponsors
- Recency of Issuance: Find those with recently issued or maturing credits
Exploring Credits
For a more granular view, head to the Credits tab.
Each Credit is a specific loan or facility that connects a Lender to a Company (and often to a sponsor).
You can filter these Credits by an equally rich set of criteria (in line with Lenders):
- Credit Type and Subtype (e.g. Term Loan B, Revolver, Mezzanine)
- Debt Size Range
- Maturity Date or Upcoming Refinancing
- Base Rate and Coupon (BPS) to benchmark pricing
- Region, Sector, and Sponsor
This view is ideal for mapping market activity, identifying potential refinancing events, or benchmarking debt pricing within a sector.
