Accordion and Extension Options are a common feature of a number of financing documents in a number of sectors other than Funds Finance, not least in Leverage Finance and Real Estate Finance transactions. This week we focus specifically on why and how these are used in Capital Call/Subscription Finance transactions and on some of the common issues that arise when they are used.

FFF this week got hold of Zac Barnett and Richard Wheelahan, who last week announced the founding of Fund Finance Partners. Here is our conversation.

Middle Market Growth, published by the Association for Corporate Growth, earlier this month published an article titled “The Future’s at Stake: New GP Financing Strategies Can Be a Lifeline for Middle-Market PE Firms.”

Zoë Hallam of Walkers Guernsey wrote an article for Asset Servicing Times titled “Beyond Subscription Lines: Fund Financing Trends Spreading Across the Atlantic.”

Zac Barnett, Managing Partner of Fund Finance Partners, authored an article this week on subscription facilities. 

Below is a look at what we are reading this week outside of the four corners of Fund Finance.
