Filed Under: Banking News

KeyCorp announced a forward flow origination partnership with Blackstone Credit & Insurance focused on Key's Specialty Finance Lending (SFL) group. SFL is a leading asset-based lender serving clients nationally across middle market, growth capital, transportation, equipment, and other verticals. In connection with the partnership, Blackstone and Key closed a transaction on a seed portfolio of middle market fund finance facilities. Key will continue to originate, hold, and provide asset management services for new commitments across all sectors.

Randy Paine, Head of Key's Institutional Bank said, "SFL is a highly successful business that has been organically built over the past 15 years to serve a dynamic and fast-growing client base with increasing financing needs. The partnership with Blackstone, a long-trusted participant in this sector, will accelerate the growth of the business and be mutually beneficial to all stakeholders, especially our clients."

"Key's SFL group is a strong franchise with deep relationships with originators," said Rob Horn, Global Head of Infrastructure and Asset Based Credit at Blackstone. "We are pleased to have closed this initial transaction and look forward to growing the relationship with SFL."

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and KeyBanc Capital Markets served as advisors to KeyBank.
