Grays Peak Capital has launched its second fund, Grays Peak Private Credit II (GPPC GovCon), a private credit vehicle designed to provide strategic capital to the government and defense ecosystem in North America. Announced in a press release, the fund has secured initial commitments from Fund I investors and multiple strategic asset managers, with plans to deploy up to $500 million annually.

GPPC GovCon will focus on short-duration, senior secured lending to government contractors and mission-critical counterparties, emphasizing strong collateral coverage. The fund leverages Grays Peak Capital's proprietary Data Science and AI-driven analytics platform to underwrite, structure, price, and manage risk across its portfolio.

The fund targets quarterly distributions and provides enhanced liquidity options for investors, aiming to deliver portfolios that maximize current income and total return through direct-lending exposure to private fixed income investments.
