Private credit lenders typically take security over the assets and cash flows supporting the facility — share pledges, mortgages over property or plant, assignment of receivables and control over collection accounts.

A unitranche combines senior and subordinated debt into a single facility from one lender, with one set of documents and a blended cost. It simplifies execution and avoids intercreditor complexity between separate lenders, in exchange for pricing above conventional senior bank debt. It is common in sponsor-backed and mid-market transactions.
