The top 10 data center lenders in 2026 are JPMorgan, MUFG, SMBC, TD Bank, Morgan Stanley, BNP Paribas, Natixis CIB, PIMCO, Blue Owl and Blackstone Credit. Between them they lead most of the construction loans, mortgages and private placements behind hyperscale and AI campuses.
This list covers what each lender actually funds, which borrowers each one suits, and what a sponsor needs in hand before any of them will issue a term sheet.
Filter by lender type to see where your project fits.
JPMorgan co-led, with MUFG, the roughly $38 billion senior secured package for Vantage's Oracle-leased campuses in Texas and Wisconsin, according to Bloomberg (2025). It is the bank of choice for gigawatt-scale construction loans backed by investment-grade tenants.
MUFG acted as administrative agent, coordinating lead arranger and sole bookrunner on DataBank's $2.0 billion Red Oak construction loan in April 2026, as reported by DCD. It is a strong fit for colocation operators with pre-leased capacity.
SMBC sits in the underwriting group on the largest US campus loans, including Vantage's Frontier facility. Its project finance desk is well suited to hyperscaler construction financing with long lease tenors.
Bisnow's 2026 analysis puts TD at $26.8 billion of data center debt, making it the largest direct data center mortgage lender tracked. It is a good fit for stabilized assets and mid-size syndications.
Morgan Stanley was sole bookrunner on the private securities offering behind Meta and Blue Owl's $27 billion Hyperion joint venture, per The Asset (2025). It suits sponsors that want SPV and bond take-outs rather than bank loans.
BNP Paribas coordinated the 13-bank, £2.45 billion financing for Virtus Data Centres in September 2026 alongside Crédit Agricole CIB, Societe Generale and Standard Chartered, according to W.Media. It is a leading choice for European platform financings.
Natixis structured and led a $2.6 billion syndicated letter of credit facility for Switch's power expansion in April 2026. It fits sponsors that need power and interconnection collateral, not only term debt.
PIMCO funds were the single largest buyers of the Hyperion bonds, which carried an A+ rating from S&P. PIMCO suits investment-grade, fully amortizing private placements with long maturities.
Blue Owl took an 80% equity stake in the Hyperion joint venture and injected about $7 billion of cash at closing. It is the reference capital provider for joint venture equity combined with private credit.
Bisnow tracks at least $8 billion of data center financing from Blackstone's credit division, all through private credit. It suits non-bank construction, bridge and recapitalization loans.

| European platform | BNP Paribas, Natixis CIB |
| Speculative or bridge | Blackstone Credit, Blue Owl |
Secured power comes first. No lender on this list will underwrite a campus without a utility agreement, an interconnection position and a credible energization date.
Leases drive sizing. Debt is sized against contracted rent from creditworthy tenants. Lenders then test the EPC contract, the construction budget and the debt service coverage under downside cases.
Financely prepares that file. Our Lender-Ready Package covers the credit memo, model review and debt sizing, sources and uses, and a live lender appetite map. For larger mandates, see our data center construction loan advisory and AI data center sale-leasebacks.
Tell us about the campus, the power position and the tenant. We will scope the work and send a fixed quote.
JPMorgan, MUFG and SMBC lead the largest US construction loans. TD Bank is the largest direct mortgage lender tracked by Bisnow. PIMCO, Blue Owl and Blackstone dominate private credit.
Usually only from private credit, at higher pricing and lower leverage. Banks generally require signed leases or a credible pre-let.
Large syndicated construction loans often take several months. Most of that time goes to diligence on power, construction and leases, so a complete credit file shortens it.
