KKR (KKR) has already doubled its private investment-grade financing activity this year with three months remaining, compared with last year, Bloomberg reported Tuesday.

The investment firm structured or syndicated more than $80 billion of deals during the first six months of 2026, and had doubled the amount it originated last year, the report said, citing a presentation.

Borrowers for which KKR structured the deal include Kuwait Petroleum, Enbridge (ENB), and Samsung Electronics, according to the presentation. It also showed that KKR has so far raised $15 billion this year for credit from third parties, a 29% increase compared with a year earlier.

KKR didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from MT Newswires.
