Monroe Capital announced the final close of its 2025 Monroe Capital Private Credit Fund V (“Fund” or “Fund V”), bringing total investable capital to $6.1 billion across the Fund, targeted fund-level leverage and separately managed accounts pursuing the same investment strategy. Fund V will continue Monroe’s longstanding focus on providing senior secured financing solutions to private equity sponsored and non-sponsored, lower middle-market U.S. companies with approximately $35 million or less in EBITDA.
Fund V received $2.8 billion of institutional limited partner commitments, complemented by $1.5 billion of targeted leverage and $1.8 billion from separately managed accounts that are expected to invest in the same mandate. This is Monroe’s largest private credit vehicle to date and extends the firm’s flagship institutional series, following Monroe Capital Private Credit Fund IV, which closed in April 2022 with $4.8 billion of investable capital.
“The successful close of Fund V reflects the continued confidence our global institutional investor base has in Monroe’s tenured direct lending platform, disciplined underwriting culture, and long-term performance across market cycles,” said Zia Uddin, President of Monroe Capital. “With this capital, we are well positioned to continue delivering consistent performance in a target segment where many limited partners are seeking increased diversification and exposure.”
The investor base for Fund V comprises a diversified group of over 90 global institutions, including public and corporate pension plans, insurance companies, sovereign wealth funds, foundations, endowments, family offices, and other institutional investors across 18 countries. Monroe continues to deepen and broaden its relationships with investors seeking access to private credit and to the lower middle-market corporate lending opportunity set.
Monroe’s direct lending strategy emphasizes rigorous credit selection, robust structural protections, and active portfolio management, with a focus on capital preservation and attractive risk-adjusted returns. The firm maintains deep relationships with private equity sponsors and intermediaries, supporting differentiated origination capabilities and the ability to deliver tailored financing solutions across a broad range of industries.
As of December 31, 2025, the Fund has committed over $3.2 billion to over 130 borrowers.
