Jefferies Finance LLC
Jefferies Finance LLC (the "Firm") was founded in 2004 as a 50/50 joint venture between MassMutual and Jefferies to serve as the balance sheet for Jefferies to underwrite and lend (broadly syndicated and direct loans) to private equity sponsor- backed companies. Nearly 20 years later, MassMutual and Jefferies continue to each own 50% of the Firm. Jefferies Credit Partners LLC ("JCP" or the "JCP Platform") is the investment management division of the Firm. The JCP Platform invests primarily across three private credit strategies: large cap direct lending, mid cap direct lending, and CLO management. The JCP Platform originates investments through an exclusive and proprietary sourcing partnership with Jefferies on all loan investment opportunities sourced through the Jefferies network.
