Unitranche Debt

Looking to simplify your company’s capital structure, accelerate growth, or fund a strategic acquisition with a single, flexible solution? Unitranche debt offers a streamlined route for ambitious, sponsor-backed businesses to access bespoke funding—without the complexity of layered facilities.

As your business scales, managing multiple debt facilities with varying terms, covenants, and repayment schedules becomes increasingly complex and time-consuming. Traditional refinancing can create delays and distract you from strategic priorities. For companies backed by private equity or public investors, the need for faster, simpler solutions is critical.

Unitranche financing addresses this by combining senior and subordinated debt into a single structure—simplifying your capital stack and providing certainty of execution. 

Is Unitranche Debt Right for You?

  • You want to replace multiple debt lines with a single, streamlined facility.
  • Managing layered covenants and lender relationships is a burden.
  • You require faster execution without coordinating across several lenders.
  • Flexibility in covenants and repayment terms is key to your growth plans.
  • A tailored funding structure aligned to your capital strategy is essential.

Understanding Unitranche Debt

Unitranche debt is a single, blended facility that merges senior and subordinated loans into one streamlined financing solution. It is well-suited for mid-market companies backed by venture capital, private equity, or public investors. Unlike traditional layered debt, unitranche offers speed, simplicity, and flexibility—with terms customised to support your growth, acquisition, or refinancing objectives. 

Navigating the Complexities of Unitranche Debt

While unitranche facilities appear simple, they require careful structuring. Key factors—such as subordination, covenant packages, and interest terms—must be aligned with your risk appetite and business goals.

Securing the right lender who understands both the intricacies of unitranche and your specific sector can be challenging. Strategic lender selection and a compelling funding pitch are crucial to achieving favourable terms.
