Mezzanine Financing Interviewees and survey participants seem of two minds regarding the roll of mezzanine financing in 2014 Some interviewees predict an “increase in B-piece, mezzanine, and debt funds to fill gaps in transaction structure” and “an increase in the use of mezzanine financing combined with higher-cost senior debt.” “The biggest question on mezzanine is where the returns are going to be.
