Monroe Capital is raising $1 billion to support EV parts suppliers. The new funding, announced today, will help businesses in the EV supply chain ramp up production as demand for EVs grows in 2024.
Monroe will use the funds to lend to companies that produce key components like batteries, charging systems and power electronics. By lending to suppliers, the company will help increase production capacity and ensure a steady supply of critical components to meet growing EV demand.
This fits with Monroe’s broader goal of getting to a decarbonized transportation sector. This is a timely move as demand for EVs is accelerating, driven by a combination of environmental concerns, government incentives and technology.

As demand for EVs grows, the industry needs a strong and stable supply chain.
