Meta Platforms is set to secure a $29 billion financing package to build advanced AI data centers in rural Louisiana.
The deal consists of $26 billion in debt, issued as bonds with PIMCO at the helm, and $3 billion in equity from Blue Owl Capital.
Both companies rank among the top players in private credit, and this mixed approach signals a move away from public funding in favor of flexible, large-scale private investment in AI infrastructure.
Meta’s spending on AI is reaching new heights. The company has lifted its 2025 capital spending outlook to between $64 billion and $72 billion, following major investments in projects like Scale AI and renewable energy sources.
Using private credit, Meta can speed up construction while keeping its balance sheet strong, supporting its push toward superintelligence and long-term AI expansion.
