Hi everyone:
Can you introduce some publicly available resources for learning debt terms please? A bit confused on what each does, how to think about them when structuring, and would really appreciate any resources on that!
Thank you!

this one helped me a lot when i was in a structured finance (financing) internship
i know it says leveraged loans but it pretty much explains all debt terms and has an overview of structuring.
hope this helps!
https://www.spglobal.com/marketintelligence/en/documents/lcd-loan-prime… ^PDF Version I second that. They have a huge glossery in the back which is useful.
I’m creating an online course that will cover this among other things in that space in a very efficient manner, as no course exists currently, bc platforms are hyper focused on modeling courses. I’ll keep you posted but in the meantime—I can pretty quickly get you up to speed with examples to practice / comp immediately—that’s how I learn. just gimme your email and lemme know what else u are looking for —if you are interested.
That's the LCDComps.com Syndicated Loan Market Primer - it's a helpful first thing to read if you are new to the space (I send this to interns, new hires, high school kids, etc).--gives good high level overviews, but its basic. @ OP - you mentioned structuring - what's your background and what's your end goal with acquiring the knowledge? I have a "Primers" folder mostly on loans (also some industry ones I stumble upon) that I've been compiling over the years. Covers every high level topic (structuring, TLA vs. TLB, doc negotiation, etc), to every subtopic (MFN, EBITDA Add-backs, etc.). Primers / slides on structuring / doc negotiation have their pros and cons, but I've always been left wanting more. Happy to send. But I've learned 10x more and explained easier asking an old colleague of mine and taking notes. feel free to PM me and exchange emails, and let me know more of what you're trying to accomplish so I can give you the best information for that need. also - I find that you learn loan terms best when you do an exercise, like comps, and see the relative differences between the 2, vs. reading a broad LCD Primer definition. Anyone else just hit me up on this topic if you're interested, especially in going beyond the basics
