“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,

“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.
