Direct Lending Model & Case Study

I'm interviewing at a Direct Lending shop (direct lending to corporates) with a case study. Does anyone have a template model and/or sample IC memo?

The model/discussion will take 3h and I’m not sure what exactly the ask be. So, I’d be super grateful if anyone can share anything that you think might be helpful.


Thank you so much!!!
