Rothschild closes LBO credit fund on €306m
Rothschild Merchant Banking has held a final close for its secured credit vehicle Oberon Credit Investment Fund II on €306m.
The fund targets senior secured credit for leveraged buyouts, both in Europe and internationally. It is already invested at 95% across 53 issuers, with Rothschild expecting it to be fully invested by the end of October.
So far, the majority of the portfolio consists of secondary assets (55%) with the balance being 2014 and 2015 primary issuance. The fund targets a net IRR in excess of 6%.
Oberon Credit Investment Fund II is managed by a dedicated team in London. In 2014, Rothschild Merchant Banking's Five Arrows division, which focuses on the European market, raised €415m for its Five Arrows Credit Solutions fund. The vehicle targets unitranche, mezzanine and other junior debt instruments in the western European mid-market.
