NEW YORK, September 30, 2020 – Golub Capital is pleased to announce it recently led incremental financings to create the two largest U.S. dollar denominated unitranche facilities ever. The two financings — to MRI Software and Risk Strategies — are now each in excess of $2 billion. Golub Capital was Lead Left Arranger and Administrative Agent on both transactions in September.

“Large unitranche deals (unitranches bigger than $500 million) are a valuable new tool for private equity sponsors. We are proud to have led more than half of the large unitranche deals done this year and last,” said Andy Steuerman, Golub Capital’s Head of Middle Market Lending and Late Stage Lending.

“We have also been hard at work this year providing financing solutions to companies of all sizes, closing over 80 deals so far this year,” said Greg Cashman, Senior Managing Director at Golub Capital.
