The Middle Market Continuum

From $10M to $500M, each size needs its own approach.

The size of a borrowing shapes who will lend, how the deal is structured and how the process is run. We work across the full range and know which capital fits each bracket.

Our network runs from boutique credit lenders, family offices and credit unions to development banks, multi-billion-dollar private credit funds, pension funds, insurers and infrastructure funds. We run competitive processes across them to find the best terms.

$10M – $50M

Growth capital and specialist lenders

Typically earlier-stage, high-growth companies raising working capital to grow revenue, or established businesses funding tuck-in acquisitions or refinancing existing debt on better terms as their financials improve.

Typical lenders
  • Boutique credit lenders
  • Family offices
  • Credit unions
  • Commercial banks
  • Development banks
$50M – $250M

Institutional middle-market lenders

Established, robust middle-market companies heading into their next phase of growth and toward the upper middle market. This could be M&A-related activity or refinancing less favourable existing facilities.

Typical lenders
  • Private credit lenders
  • Pension funds
  • Insurance companies
  • Asset managers
  • Infrastructure funds
$250M – $500M

Syndicated and club financings

Companies with significant revenue and healthy EBITDA and margins. Some of our capital providers can finance at this level alone, but these facilities are increasingly structured as syndicated or club deals.

Typical lenders
  • Private credit lenders
  • Pension funds
  • Insurance companies
  • Asset managers
  • Infrastructure funds

Jason Mooney

Founder, MoonWood Financial Solutions

Jason has more than three decades of global capital markets experience, spent at the meeting point of corporate borrowers and institutional capital providers. He has held executive leadership roles ranging from Head of Debt Capital Markets at a major Canadian independent investment bank to Head of Sales and Trading at leading global banks, and has been involved in capital raises totalling more than $100 billion.

In recent years his focus has been the underbanked middle market, where in the last 24 months alone he has personally helped secure close to $1 billion of debt financing for companies across a wide range of industries in North America and Europe.

His background is rooted in structuring, originating and executing complex credit solutions. He began his career trading global bonds at Bear Stearns, where he became the youngest trader in the firm’s history and one of the youngest bond traders globally. He then went on to build international high-yield, private debt, structured credit, and debt capital markets and advisory platforms in London, New York and Toronto. Throughout, the focus has been the same: optimizing debt structures and connecting issuers with the capital they need.
