Anthropic secures $63 billion for AI infrastructure financing
Anthropic has arranged a $63 billion financing deal to fund the acquisition of artificial intelligence chips and networking equipment from Broadcom. The transaction involves the creation of a special purpose vehicle (SPV) that will purchase the technology and lease it back to Anthropic, the developer of the Claude AI assistant.
The financing structure includes approximately $43.5 billion in senior secured loans organized by Bank of America, Citigroup, and Morgan Stanley. Blackstone will provide the second-lien debt portion of the arrangement. Broadcom is expected to provide residual value support to lenders to mitigate risks associated with equipment depreciation.
Equipment deliveries are scheduled to begin in 2027. The announcement has impacted financial markets, with Broadcom's stock rising nearly 4% following the news. The deal represents one of the largest debt transactions specifically linked to the expansion of AI computing capacity.
