Second Lien Loans Secondary collateralized institutional loans (SCIL) are increasingly being used for recapitalization—taking out dividends or replacing more expensive mezzanine with less-expensive SCIL financing and buyout financing. SCIL on a standalone basis or in combination with mezzanine effectively lowers a company’s cost of capital. Second lien financing can offer more flexibility than mezzanine and other junior capital solutions, while creating additional liquidity for the borrower. It is also typically viewed as a substitution for more expensive private or public mezzanine or equity-based capital.
