National Security Direct Lending

Rochefort Lending Solutions For Critical Technology Areas

In 2024, Serengeti and Kyle Bass’ firm, Hayman Capital Management, launched Rochefort Asset Management, a Serengeti-affiliated advisor approved by and working with the Department of War and Small Business Administration to finance the growth of businesses critical to our country’s national and economic security.

The Financing Challenge for Critical Technology Companies

Businesses poised for growth often face challenges in securing the capital they need to execute their transformative business plans. Traditional lending options tend to focus on larger facilities for well-capitalized companies, leaving many middle-market businesses underserved.

We focus on providing tailored debt solutions to complex and generally non-sponsored middle-market companies undergoing transformative events. These businesses often face limited options: accept highly dilutive equity investments or struggle to access traditional lending sources.

Our capital solutions enable businesses to complete their transformations, scale their operations, and unlock opportunities to secure more favorable, long-term financing.

By targeting industries that have reached sufficient scale and developed substantial supply chains, customer bases, and recurring revenue streams, we are able to underwrite loans to our rigorous standards.

Our approach allows us to provide capital to companies with proven technologies and commercial viability, even if they have yet to achieve bottom-line profitability. By leveraging contracts and recurring revenue streams, we can extend credit where traditional lenders cannot, helping businesses achieve their full potential.
