Bank of America and others launch $60 billion financing to support Anthropic leasing Google AI chips
智通财经2026/10/05 21:31According to the Financial Times, Bank of America, Citigroup, and Morgan Stanley have begun distributing a total debt financing package of $60 billion to other banks, to support Anthropic’s leasing of Google (GOOG.US) AI chips in what is the largest chip financing deal to date. Of this amount, approximately $42 billion consists of senior secured loans backed by Broadcom (AVGO.US), with syndication launching on Monday; an additional $18 billion, a tranche of subordinated debt without Broadcom’s backing, is expected to be launched later, with Blackstone committed to providing about $9 billion of the funding. The funds raised will support Anthropic’s chip orders for 2027, with lease payments beginning after chip delivery. Broadcom may also receive up to $42 billion in convertible notes from Anthropic as payment for related leasing costs. This $60 billion financing is being seen as a key test of market demand for AI-related debt.
