“We expect momentum to continue with companies that have put off financing decisions gradually adjusting their expectations and cost structures in anticipation of a higher-for-longer rate environment, and continuing to look for long-term partners to provide credit solutions.” --Matt Douglass, Senior Managing Director at PGIM Private Capital (Photo: Business Wire)

“The first half of 2024 has been more stable for issuance than the same period last year. This year we’ve seen M&A activity pick up somewhat, a less uncertain economic environment and greater acceptance of higher rates which has fed through to a pickup in financing activity,” said Matt Douglass, senior managing director and head of PGIM Private Capital. “We expect momentum to continue with companies that have put off financing decisions gradually adjusting their expectations and cost structures in anticipation of a higher-for-longer rate environment, and continuing to look for long-term partners to provide credit solutions.”

First Half 2024 Highlights:

  • $5.5 billion of investment-grade investments, $1.7 billion of below-investment-grade investments, over $230 million of mezzanine and private equity investments.
  • 56 new issuers across a range of industries added to the portfolio, and 79 existing borrower companies returned for further funding.
  • $4.0 billion in Global Corporate Finance investments across North America, the U.K., Europe, Latin America and Australasia.
  • $2.5 billion in real assets sectors, including energy, power, infrastructure, credit tenant lease financing, and structured credit.
  • Over $230 million of mezzanine investments, across nearly 20 transactions.
  • $1.1 billion in Direct Lending transactions, across more than 30 transactions in 9 countries.

In the first half 2024, PGIM Private Capital continued building long-term relationships across geographies, including over 50 direct Global Corporate Finance transactions. Direct originations continue to be a core driver of PGIM Private Capital’s diverse pipeline, offering investors access to differentiated deal flow — from financing a U.S.-based family-owned agricultural commodity processor to supporting Mexico’s leading distributor of heavy machinery and equipment.

PGIM Private Capital’s Real Assets platform originated $1.9 billion in energy and power transactions, over $450 million in infrastructure investments, and $200 million in credit tenant lease transactions. Notably, the team closed its first renewable power transaction in Sweden with Solør Bioenergi AB, a privately owned Northern European district heating platform, and its first energy investment in Spain with a holdco debt transaction in Exolum, an international liquid products logistics company.

As general economic activity stabilizes and steadily increases, PGIM Private Capital’s Alternatives platform has seen strong activity, with over $1.3 billion in originations globally. The platform continues to gain momentum across both direct lending and mezzanine asset classes internationally, with the team notably closing several transactions comprising both senior and junior capital across Europe, Australia and North America.

PGIM Private Capital also launched its first European Long-Term Investment Fund (ELTIF) in H1 2024 to support its direct lending strategy. The ELTIF will support PGIM Private Capital’s loan origination efforts in Europe, providing flexibility to extend loans across the continent with a more varied mix of borrower type.
