In a syndication, which group are the two main constituencies?

Retail investors and sovereign funds

Mutual funds and hedge funds

Corporates and governments

Banks and institutional investors

Banks take the lead in arranging and underwriting the loan, structuring terms, and distributing portions to other lenders. Institutional investors—such as pension funds, insurance companies, and asset managers—provide most of the remaining capital by buying participations in the loan. Retail investors aren’t typically involved due to the large size and specialized nature of syndicated loans, and while sovereign funds are a type of institutional investor, the two broad constituencies are the banks and institutional investors.
