Enterprising Finance is proud to announce the first close of its second private debt fund on 6 November 2026, bringing its total funds raised above EUR 180m. As with Fund I, the fund is backed by our long-term cornerstone investor, the European Investment Fund (‘EIF’), alongside a wide range of European family offices, many of whom are re-investing after their commitment to Fund I.

Fund II continues the strategy of Fund I: providing senior secured loans between EUR 5m and EUR 20m to Dutch SMEs in the lower mid-market, owned by founders, families and independent sponsors. This is a segment that is underserved by banks and larger direct lenders given the requirement for proprietary investment origination, execution and monitoring. By offering flexible, tailor-made financing, Enterprising Finance supports entrepreneurs in growth, acquisitions and ownership transitions, while protecting investors through a senior secured position.

Enterprising Finance is grateful for the continued support and trust of the EIF and the returning European family offices and looks forward to welcoming new investors in the coming months. Demand for growth financing from Dutch entrepreneurs remains strong and, given the healthy pipeline of opportunities and the increase of assets under management, we foresee to expand our market reach.

The first close marks the start of our fundraising effort towards a final close, planned in 2027.

Enterprising Finance NL Private Credit Fund II SCSp is managed by FundRock LIS S.A. as AIFM, administered and domiciled by Trustmoore Luxembourg S.A. with the depositary duties performed by UBS Europe SE. Legal advice was provided by Jones Day and Van Campen Liem
