Nvidia said it is working with six large US investment firms — Apollo, Blackstone, BlackRock, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs and KKR — to arrange $500 billion of financing for AI data centre infrastructure. The group will set up dedicated pools of capital that Nvidia customers can borrow from at what the companies describe as attractive rates. The arrangement is a commitment to source funding rather than money already deployed.
