Five deals can tell you more than you think.
On the last Friday of every month, Five Deal Friday takes you inside five real private lending transactions from across our network. Some will have settled. Some won't have.
Lenders naturally talk about the deals they fund — but that's only one side of the story. Five Deal Friday also looks at the deals that didn't get through credit: what went wrong, what mattered to the lender, and how the transaction could have been viewed differently. Sometimes the biggest lessons come from understanding why a deal didn't get there — and as you'll see, it's not always the numbers.
Over time, you'll start to see the patterns behind how different transactions are assessed, structured and positioned for credit — the kind of pattern recognition that usually only comes from being in the room for hundreds of deals.
The video above explains why that matters.
Five real transactions on the last Friday of every month.
What worked. What didn't. And why.
