The Role of NAV Loans and How They Fit in GPs Financial Tool Kit
LSEG LPC’s CJ Doherty sits down with Aryeh Landsberg, Managing Director, Investments at 17Capital and Ryan Moreno, Partner and Co-Head of Private Credit and Fund Finance at DLA Piper, to discuss NAV loans made to private equity funds, how GPs deploy this product and how it fits in their financial tool kit. “NAV can be a useful tool to help manage remaining capital needs, maintain a balance between remaining uncalled capital from their LPs for additional uses such as accretive M&A opportunities but also for fund level expenses,” said Landsberg. “Banks, historically, had been the provider of the NAV loan product, more in a kind of fashion where they would do it as an accommodation for one of their larger sponsor clients,” Moreno said.
