  "account": "Eagle Point Credit Management has provided approximately $1.3 billion in private credit financing for a significant AI data centre situated in Texas, according to Bloomberg. This mezzanine facility is part of a larger $16 billion project financing package for Nexus Data Centers' planned 2,900-acre campus in Hubbard, Texas, located about 70 miles south of Dallas, as per a source familiar with the transaction. Eagle Point is the leading investor in the mezzanine loan, which comes after the senior portions of the financing. The project has recently closed, according to a Bloomberg statement. The campus will feature its own gas-fired power generation facility, with Anthropic serving as the primary tenant. Major banks such as Morgan Stanley are leading the wider financing package, which was initially estimated at around $15 billion. Nexus declined to comment, while Anthropic did not respond to a request for comment. The Hubbard development marks Nexus's initial data centre project and is part of a nationwide expansion effort to meet the increasing demand for computing capacity from companies developing and operating AI models.",
