Overland Advantage, a business development company benefiting from a partnership between Centerbridge Partners and Wells Fargo (WFC), continues to show robust growth in providing bespoke financing solutions to middle market companies. Year-to-date in 2025, Overland has effectively arranged $2.0 billion in new transactions across nine deals, thereby increasing the total aggregate deal value to $4.8 billion over 16 transactions since Q2 2024.

The company has successfully structured and led approximately 95% of its credit facilities independently, reflecting its strong origination and execution capabilities in the private credit space. This strategic approach marks Overland as a lead arranger, rather than just a participant, in these transactions.

Notable deals facilitated by Overland include term loans and credit facilities for companies such as Hand Family Companies, Jones Industrial Holdings, Southern Crown Partners, Sunset Distributing, and USG Water, spanning sectors like distribution, industrial services, and utilities infrastructure. This focus on essential service providers underscores a conservative credit strategy aimed at businesses with recurring revenue models and hard assets.

The strategic alliance between Wells Fargo and Centerbridge Partners provides Overland with an edge by combining Wells Fargo's extensive origination network and financial products with Centerbridge's expertise in private and alternative credit investments. This enables Overland to offer comprehensive financing solutions tailored for privately owned middle market businesses, enhancing capital access for companies often underconnected to private credit facilities.
