With its first debt financing round, one of America’s fastest-growing corporate cards can serve more customers
The first corporate card that helps businesses spend less experiences record-setting adoption as it nears $1B in annualized transaction volume just one year after the product’s general availability.
GoodLeap has closed a $389 million securitisation, its 26th overall and sixth backed solely by home improvement loans. The transaction, GoodLeap Home Improvement Solutions Trust 2026-2, was sponsored by Bank of America and is backed by $434 million in principal balance of GoodLeap-originated loans. The securitisation received ratings from Kroll Bond Rating Agency and Fitch Ratings. Joint bookrunners included Goldman Sachs, CIBC World Markets, and Citigroup Global Markets. GoodLeap provides financing and software for sustainable home solutions including solar panels, batteries, and energy-efficient HVAC systems. Since 2018, the company has facilitated more than $38 billion in financing, serving over 1.7 million homeowners. The sustainable home upgrades market represents an estimated $450 billion annual opportunity in the United States.
Goldman Sachs has committed up to an additional £500m to Quantum Development Finance, potentially expanding the specialist lender's funding capacity to £700m. The expanded long-term facility represents potential funding capacity rather than capital already advanced to borrowers. Quantum provides development and bridging finance to SME housebuilders and property investors across England and Wales, offering loans typically between £1m and £30m. The lender has financed approximately 4,000 homes since its 2023 founding and passed £1bn in cumulative funding during the summer. The commitment contrasts with pressure elsewhere in development finance, where firms face challenges from build-cost inflation and subdued markets. Quantum also partners with alternative investment manager AB CarVal for long-term funding.
89bio, a San Francisco-based clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, has raised approximately $287.5 million through a public offering of common stock and pre-funded warrants. Gibson Dunn advised on the transaction. The company focuses on developing therapies for patients with liver and cardiometabolic diseases lacking optimal treatment options. Goldman Sachs, Leerink Partners, and BofA Securities served as lead book-running managers for the offering, with Cantor acting as book-running manager. The Gibson Dunn team included Ryan Murr, Branden Berns, Melanie Neary, Lauren Navarro, and Jasmine Vitug.
