Panelist: Pete Connoy, Founder & Managing Partner, ECS Debt
Advisory, has over 25 years of debt financing experience.
Prior to founding ECS Debt Advisory in 2014, Pete was involved in
over $10 billion of debt financings spanning roles as both a borrower
and a lender - experiences that inform his current processes to source,
structure and close optimal debt financings on behalf of borrowers.
Pete previously headed capital raising and M&A activity for a
publicly traded Fortune 1000 telecommunications company,
PAETEC, where he raised over $2.7 billion of debt capital, prior to
which he was SVP & Team Leader for Union Bank’s
Communications/Media Lending group where he oversaw over $8
billion in financings.
ECS takes advantage of the middle market’s significant inefficiencies
that leave most borrowers paying more than they should with tighter
terms than what is achievable. Working on behalf of borrowers only,
ECS executes financings for middle market owner/operators and
equity sponsorship groups to deliver best-in-class debt financings,
having funded over $750 million in debt capital since ECS was
founded.

MAJOR TOPICS
• What is on the menu for owner/operator borrowers today?
• Difference between a regulated bank and Debt Fund
• Can owner/operators get financed like their PE owned competitors?
• What is the optimal structure for a borrower with 4x-5x leverage? Uni’s vs.
senior/junior combination?
