Method
Every figure counts the debt-only public book: active lenders that carry at least one debt structure. A lender that lists several structures, sectors, regions or check sizes appears in each matching row, so rows add up to more than the total. Medians use only check-size ranges confirmed from a published source, such as the fund’s own site or an SEC filing, state how many that is, and are left out when fewer than 5 are confirmed. Modeled estimates and unsourced ranges never count toward one. The page is recounted hourly and dated by the newest update in the book. Full definitions are on the methodology page.
