CoreWeave (CRWV) is aiming to raise nearly $8.5 billion from banks, including Morgan Stanley (MS) and Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, to fund a deal with Meta Platforms (META), Bloomberg reported Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.
The proposed delayed-drawn term loan, planned to support the development of cloud computing capacity for the tech giant, would be financed by a contract Meta signed last year to pay CoreWeave close to $14.2 billion for its services.
The loan will also be backed by a separate agreement between the companies, earlier this year, valued at over $5 billion, according to the report.
Morgan Stanley and Mitsubishi are currently conducting a private syndication of the loan to other lenders, with the deal expected to close in March.
CoreWeave, Meta, Morgan Stanley and Mitsubishi did not immediately respond to MT Newswires' request for comment.
