Datacenter debt & structured finance
Asset-backed financing behind the compute buildout
The AI buildout is increasingly financed with GPU-backed debt, special-purpose vehicles and private-credit (Blue Owl, Apollo, PIMCO) plus vendor financing from NVIDIA and clouds. This structured-finance layer, and questions about GPU depreciation and circular vendor financing, is a systemic-risk node most technical maps ignore.
