For Institutional Capital Partners

Alpha spread.
Investment-grade credit.

Dolfin originates long-duration, unsecured leases against creditworthy corporate tenants — delivering spread materially above where those credits trade in the public bond market.

Private credit spread
on public-grade borrowers.

The Dolfin Lease is not a bond. It is a private, bilateral obligation — and that illiquidity premium is the return driver. You are lending to the same credits as the IG bond market, but capturing 50–150bps of additional spread because the obligation is originated off-market and undiscovered by the broader market.

The Borrower

Same credit.
Better price.

Dolfin tenants are investment-grade or near-IG corporates — the same obligors you find in an IG bond index. Rather than buying their public bonds at tight market spreads, you are originating a direct, private bilateral obligation — not a rated instrument — at 50–150bps wide of where they trade.
The Obligation

Hell-or-high-water. Fully amortizing.

The Dolfin Lease is a hell-or-high-water obligation — the tenant must pay regardless of whether they occupy the space. Fully amortizing over 10–20 years. Fixed rate. No balloon. The payment stream is as predictable as a bond coupon, with materially better spread. The Dolfin Lease is a private, bilateral obligation — not a bond — but priced and underwritten using the same credit framework.
The Track Record

$300M deployed. Zero losses.

Since inception, Dolfin has deployed over $300M across creditworthy corporate tenants with zero realized credit losses. Weighted average tenant rating of A. Transactions are not themselves rated instruments — pricing and risk are driven by the pass-through of the tenant's credit profile. Average lease duration of 10 years.

Where Dolfin
sits in the market.

The alpha comes from origination — not from taking additional credit risk. Dolfin leases price wide of public bonds on the same obligor because they are private, illiquid, and not available to the broader market.
