Senior Credit

Middle-market yield-focused returns with low volatility

Kayne Senior Credit Partners ("KSCP") generates investment returns through directly sourced, negotiated and monitored investments in stable, cash flow-generating middle-market companies that demonstrate well-defined business value attributes.  Investments are completed through secured debt instruments, with KSCP generally as lead or co-lead, across a diversified portfolio of senior credit investments in traditional middle-market companies located primarily in the U.S. with revenues between $50 million and $500 million (EBITDA greater than $10 million). KSCP loan investments will all be secured by a senior or junior lien and will be structured in the form of 1st lien cash flow, bifurcated and 2nd lien term loans.  Investment sizes will generally range from $10 million to $35 million. KSCP's investments will be structured as floating rate loans based off Libor and the prime rate, allowing for a natural hedge against inflation as interest rates rise.

KSCP is a natural extension of Kayne Anderson's success as a longstanding middle-market investor and will leverage Kayne's proprietary deal flow and expertise from its New York-based Kayne Anderson Mezzanine Partners ("KAMP") team, with whom the KSCP principals have extensive prior senior loan investing experience.

Experienced Senior Credit Investors:

The Managing Partners of KSCP joined Kayne as a cohesive unit in 2011.  The team has an extensive history (over two decades) of successfully working together in the North American senior credit middle-market, most recently as the co-founders of Dymas Capital and prior to that at GE Capital/Heller Financial.  They have more than 70 years of combined lending experience and have collectively completed over 500 transactions representing over $10 billion in underwritten middle-market bank loan commitments over multiple credit cycles.  Through these transactions and a lengthy distinguished list of relationships, the KSCP partners have developed reputations as value-added partners, enabling them to be the "first call" and a preferred provider of senior debt capital.  KSCP also benefits from over 100 years of combined experience in fixed income and middle market investing of KSCP's Investment Committee.
