Corporate Capital Trust, a business development company that offers individuals the opportunity to invest in the debt of privately owned American companies, has increased its lending capacity through its senior secured revolving credit facility from $490 million to $655 million.

J.P. Morgan Securities and ING Capital served as the joint lead arrangers of the facility and 17 financial institutions currently participate in the lender syndicate. This credit facility was initiated in September 2013 with $285 million in commitments. The facility is expandable to a maximum of $900 million and matures in September 2017.

"We are pleased to be able to expand our credit facility for the third time in 16 months and are pleased with the breadth of lenders participating. We see investment opportunities arising from recent market volatility, and the expansion will provide more capital to capture those opportunities," said Steve Shackelford, president and chief financial officer of Corporate Capital Trust.
