MEZZANINE CAPITAL INFORMATION & STATS
Mezzanine private equity is a form of debt/equity financing solution provided through subordinated debt, preferred stock, or equity ownership to fund the expansion, M&A growth, restructure, or cash flow needs of a company without the business losing its control or majority shares. Although the interest is typically higher for mezzanine financing based on risk factors, businesses do not have to provide any collateral up front. However, mezzanine capital funds are entitled to ownership equity should the loan enter default. Mezzanine funding is a type of late stage financing that gives companies the opportunity to come up with the financing when other funding resources are unavailable for projects, acquisitions, or expansion.
