OEI Private Credit Launches OEI Ready Capital Facility, Closes $200 Million in Committed Capital to Serve the Market's Most Overlooked Talent

PRESS RELEASE
Published April 8, 2026

MIAMI, FL / ACCESS Newswire / April 8, 2026 / OEI Private Credit today announced the official launch of the OEI Ready Capital Facility, a committed revolving credit program designed to give Private Equity firms and professional capital raisers immediate, pre-activated access to capital. The Facility operates through a funded reserve activation structure, allowing qualified borrowers to draw capital the moment a deal surfaces - without delays or lengthy re-approval cycles.

The program's initial $100 million raise was led by First Pacific Insurance and EcoCapital Fund. An additional $100 million commitment has been secured from YieldVault.Investing through its Regulation D Private Offering, bringing total committed capital to $200 million.

The launch comes at a pivotal moment in the private capital markets. Fundraising conditions for independent fund managers and capital raisers have grown increasingly difficult, with institutional LP allocations concentrating among a shrinking pool of established mega-funds. Talented, experienced professionals with strong track records and active deal pipelines are finding themselves locked out of traditional capital sources - not because of performance, but because of access. OEI Private Credit sees this market dislocation as precisely the opportunity it was built to address.

"The fundraising environment is genuinely changing, and it is becoming harder - not easier - for some of the most talented capital managers in the market to get the support they need," said Jonathan Perez, Senior Partner, OEI Private Credit. "We see an enormous opportunity to link arms with the most talented, overlooked professionals in the market - people who are putting in the work and have the deals, but need the capital enhancement to get to the next level. I am personally going to lead that charge by talking directly with as many Private Equity firms as I can. That is the OEI commitment."

"We are excited to be a part of OEI Private Credit and will continue to support them in the future. Our investors are thrilled," said Wei G. Wang, YieldVault.

Unlike traditional GP finance providers who serve large, established managers through committee-driven processes, OEI Private Credit is defined by direct senior partner involvement and rapid execution - a hands-on philosophy built for the speed and precision that today's private capital markets demand.
