NAV Loan Fuels Continued Growth for Leading Private Equity Sponsor

In October 2025, ORIX USA’s GP Solutions group (‘GPS’) provided a $30 million NAV loan to a structured equity fund (the ‘Fund’) managed by a leading lower middle-market private equity firm (the ‘Sponsor’).

With over $2.0 billion in AUM and a 15-year track record of strong performance, the Sponsor has built a reputation for providing growth capital to high-growth, founder-owned companies. The Fund — Sponsor’s inaugural growth equity fund — generated top-quartile returns, including an exit that generated substantial distributions for investors.
