Frequently asked questions
What type of credit does PAR specialize in?
PAR focuses on asset-based lending and specialty finance, structuring loans secured by hard assets, receivables, and other collateral pools. The firm operates outside broadly syndicated markets, concentrating on senior secured positions with contractual and structural downside protection. This approach aligns with private credit strategies that prioritize capital preservation over yield maximization.
How does PAR source its lending opportunities?
PAR sources deal flow through regional banking relationships, broker networks, and direct origination efforts from its Lutz, Florida base. Its location outside traditional financial centers enables access to middle-market borrowers underserved by larger direct lenders. The firm does not rely primarily on sponsor-backed auction processes.
Is PAR a single-family office or an institutional asset manager?
PAR operates as an institutional asset manager focused on private credit, not a family office. There is no public record of the firm being structured around a single family's wealth or operating as a multi-family office. Its fund and vehicle structures follow standard institutional private credit models.
Does PAR participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?
PAR originates and manages direct lending deals rather than acting as a fund-of-funds or committing to third-party managers. The firm structures its own credit vehicles, placing capital directly into asset-backed loans and specialty finance facilities. Co-investment with external investors would follow the same direct origination model.
What geographic markets does PAR cover?
PAR's lending activities have historically focused on the domestic United States market. Deal flow originates through regional networks, with no public disclosure of international lending operations or non-US offices. The firm's Florida location supports coverage of Southeast and national middle-market borrowers.
