A10 Capital Closes $75 Million Investment Facility from KKR
Boise, Idaho (PRWEB) February 10, 2016 -- A10 Capital, the nation’s leading middle-market commercial real estate lender, today announced it closed a $75 million investment facility from KKR. This platform investment will bolster A10’s core capital base to fuel the future growth of its on-balance sheet bridge and permanent loan products.
“We have built A10 into a leading commercial real estate lender by being obsessed with our clients – broadening our on-balance sheet loan products, solving our borrowers’ pain points, and delivering a better and more efficient borrowing experience with our nimble and full-service platform,” said Jerry Dunn, CEO of A10 Capital. “This significant investment from KKR, one of the most prestigious institutional investors in the world, further enhances our leadership position and capital base.”
“A10 is an established lender in the middle-market commercial mortgage space,” said Dev Gopalan, Head of U.S. Private Credit. “What distinguishes A10 is its strong track record and unique origination platform that has generated consistent growth. A10 is positioned to be an effective nonbank CRE lender, able to compete with bank, CMBS, and life company lenders at time when they are being significantly and adversely impacted by new financial regulation.”
