PennantPark offers investors selectively designed exposure to middle market credit. Our expertise is affirmed by our track record over multiple economic cycles and forged by productive relationships with renowned companies and middle market private equity sponsors. Getting to know us is a winning proposition.
PennantPark was founded in 2007 as an independent middle market credit provider, free of conflicts and affiliations. We provide institutions and individuals with targeted exposure to the core middle market, a segment that offers persistently attractive investment opportunities. Our investment offerings include business development companies, private capital funds, joint ventures, and other specialized funds.
PennantPark provides tailored financing solutions across the capital structure to profitable, growing, and cash-flowing companies in the core middle market. We often participate in a company’s first round of institutional investment, acting as a strategic partner to help drive growth. These mid-sized companies are often overlooked by other lenders, resulting in favorable lending terms and important structural protections that help us preserve capital.
Our origination engine is often fueled by long-term partnerships with hundreds of middle market private equity sponsors. These senior-level relationships have been built over decades at PennantPark and predecessor firms. As a result, we are able to take advantage of exclusive and unique opportunities, along with the repeat business afforded to a trusted incumbent lender.
