Golub Capital has reported record originations in the second quarter of 2021, signing up over USD9 billion in retained and syndicated commitments and completing over 95 new and add-on transactions.
Originations in the quarter were 30 per cent higher than the fourth quarter of 2020, the Firm’s previous record quarter.
“Golub Capital is firing on all cylinders in this post-Covid period, reflecting the power and the resilience of our award-winning, market-leading sponsor finance business,” says David Golub, President of Golub Capital.
Second quarter financings ranged in size from USD10 million to in excess of USD2 billion and included both syndicated and buy-and-hold unitranche transactions.
“Our ability to complete over 95 transactions this quarter is a testament to the deep relationships we have with leading sponsors, the expertise and discipline of our team and the reliable, distinctive and compelling financing options we offer borrowers,” said Greg Cashman, Head of Direct Lending at Golub Capital.
With this high level of second quarter activity, Golub Capital also announced its capital under management now exceeds USD40 billion.
