Golub Capital

Golub Capital is a direct lender and private credit asset manager founded in 1994 and headquartered in New York City. The firm specialises in sponsor finance - financing solutions arranged for private equity sponsors and their portfolio companies - and reports capital under management of more than $90 billion, with more than $220 billion of loans originated since 2004. It employs over 1,100 people across 12 offices in the United States, Europe and Asia.

The investment platform is organised around four principal financing strategies. Unitranche Lending combines what would otherwise be several tranches of debt into a single facility for sponsors and portfolio companies; Senior Credit Facilities provide senior secured lending to middle market companies; Recurring Revenue Lending underwrites B2B software businesses against contracted recurring revenue rather than traditional cash-flow or asset coverage; and Capital Markets Solutions covers broader financing arrangements for borrowers and investors. The firm also provides private credit and direct growth equity to software businesses.

Market positioning is anchored in the middle market, with stated vertical focus across private equity, B2B software and private credit. Golub Capital has received more than 60 industry awards and was named Lender of the Decade and Senior Lender of the Decade, Americas by Private Debt Investor. Internally, the firm describes a collaborative culture, a long-term partnership orientation with sponsors and investors, and a stated commitment to employee development.
