GCA Global

GCA Global

GCA Global was founded in 2015 by Moez Kaba, a former Managing Director at H.I.G. Capital, where he focused on distressed and special-situation credit investments. The firm emerged as a boutique credit and real assets platform, leveraging Kaba's experience in sourcing, structuring, and managing complex debt transactions across North America and Europe. While the firm does not publicly disclose its wealth origin or backing structure, its investment posture reflects a principal-minded approach shaped by Kaba's two decades in private credit. The firm's strategy targets niche, asset-heavy credit opportunities spanning private credit, real estate debt, infrastructure financing, and energy transition assets. GCA Global structures transactions as direct loans, structured equity, and preferred capital, frequently stepping into deals too small, operational, or bespoke for large institutional credit funds. Its geographic footprint concentrates on developed markets, with known activity across the United States, Canada, and Western Europe. Sector exposure emphasizes real assets, transportation infrastructure, and renewable energy projects — areas where collateral value and contractual cash flows provide intrinsic downside protection separate from sponsor dependence. GCA Global operates from San Francisco. Team size and total capital deployment are not publicly disclosed. The firm's strategy is confined to direct credit and asset-level transactions; no separate venture, growth equity, or philanthropic vehicles are publicly identified. Recent transaction activity remains largely unreported in the trade press, with the firm maintaining a deliberately low profile consistent with credit-focused, asset-backed investing that does not rely on brand-building for origination. The firm's structural distinction lies in its hybrid mandate. This patient-liability structure, combined with an asset-class reach spanning real estate, infrastructure, and specialty finance, differentiates GCA Global from single-strategy private credit managers who compete on speed and leverage rather than structural creativity and hold-to-maturity discipline.
