Leveraged Finance

Delivering thought-provoking ideas and flawless execution.

KeyBanc Capital Markets® provides a wealth of knowledge, helping us bring innovative financial solutions to the table so you can take advantage of every opportunity.

Financing leveraged acquisitions, privatizations and other strategic transactions for both financial sponsors and corporations requires specialized expertise. Whether you are a financial advisor, a company seeking financing or an investor seeking strategic opportunities, we leverage our deep relationships and capabilities in this space to provide rapid decision making and certainty of execution.

We take the time to understand our borrowers’ business goals and financial needs and develop a structure and syndication strategy to meet those needs.

Financial sponsors, public companies and private companies are all among our leveraged finance borrowers.
