What is leveraged finance?

How can a private equity firm undertake one of those huge LBOs you hear about, while leaving the target company with the borrowed debt that has to be repaid?
Leveraged Finance, of course.
In this video, master explainer Paddy Hirsch details how these transactions work, what kind of debt is entailed, and who, at the end of the day, is left holding the bag (of money).

Lol i swear the corporate world try’s to make everything so complicated by giving it “sophisticated” names. When it finally made sense what PE was your comment is exactly how I looked at it.

[@AJvanuw]

that's called a mortgage dude

[@jameskuckkan2326]

I'm just a little confused---they bought the company for 10 billion dollars, and they sold it for 15. I know that 7.5 billion has to go back to the lenders, but what about the net profit from the sale? Isn't it just 5 billion?

It‘s a 200% ROI

[@jenswachtel3424]

Isn't it even less. The interest likely eats up a chunk too

[@JohnSmith-si8nz]

he probably mixed up 3x cash on cash return and 200% ROI :D

[@harishkadam5589]

Sir , Can you please name any course/ certification which gives full knowledge of Leveraged Finance operations?

[@netanelOnline]

[@ezrazephania8725]

[@saltyjr3796]

Is this the same as trading from a short position?

[@niveaulimbo6101]

Salty jr no

[@JohnSmith-si8nz]

nope this is done by buying put options on a publicly-traded stock

[@alexanderyarizadeh1387]

that was good :)

[@netanelOnline]

yeah but if they fail they also stealing money and assets right... so in reality the risk much is much lower.
