Baker Tilly Advisory Group, LP
Baker Tilly is a large U.S. accounting and consulting firm and the American member of Baker Tilly International. In a 2024 private-equity recapitalization it split into two partnerships: Baker Tilly Advisory Group, LP (the borrower entity) houses the business-advisory, consulting and tax services, while a separate licensed CPA firm, Baker Tilly US, LLP, keeps the regulated audit/attest work. The firm was formerly known as Virchow, Krause & Company.

Lenders
Baker Tilly Advisory Group, LP is held by 5 BDC lenders in our parsed SEC filings: BXSL, GBDC, NMFC, OBDC, OBDE.
Cross-lender loan pricing
Each row is one debt tranche at the BDC’s most recent filing that holds this borrower, widest spread first. Mark is the position’s fair value as a percent of par (100 = par). Spread is shown in basis points over the benchmark in the Rate column, normalized from each filing’s as-reported units — rows quoting different benchmarks are still not directly comparable. Compare like-for-like: a second-lien tranche, a different vintage, or an older filing should price wider even when the credit view is identical — check the Type and Filing columns before reading a gap as disagreement.

Marks reflect each BDC’s own fair-value estimates as reported to the SEC, not traded prices. Private-credit loans are predominantly Level 3 under ASC 820 — valued from unobservable inputs and determined in good faith by each BDC’s board, so figures are estimates as of the filing date and are not directly comparable across managers. Informational only; not investment advice or a valuation.

Headlines mentioning Baker Tilly Advisory Group, LP
Reading this table
When two business development companies lend to the same borrower, comparing how each marks the loan is a starting question, not a verdict. In plain English: a wider spread (e.g. S+575 vs S+525) or a lower mark (e.g. 96 vs 100 cents on the dollar) can mean that lender is pricing in more risk — but marks can also differ for reasons other than a credit view: a different tranche (second lien should price wider than first lien on the same company), a different vintage or entry point, an older filing date, or each manager’s own fair-value methodology. Compare like-for-like — check the Type and Filing columns before reading a gap as disagreement. Each row is one debt position at one BDC’s most recent filing.
