Broadcom arranges $63 billion chip financing deal for Anthropic : US Pioneer Global VC DIFCHQ SFO NYC Singapore – Riyadh Swiss Our Mind

Demand for artificial intelligence computing infrastructure is driving increasingly large financing structures across the semiconductor supply chain. Broadcom has arranged a $63 billion deal with major Wall Street firms to fund Anthropic’s chip purchases through a new special purpose vehicle.

  • Broadcom, Bank of America, Blackstone, Citigroup, and Morgan Stanley arranged a $63 billion committed financing deal for Anthropic’s chip procurement via a special purpose vehicle.
  • The structure enables the vehicle to buy Broadcom chips and lease them to Anthropic, with Broadcom providing residual value support to underpin asset value.
  • This deal demonstrates increasing institutional interest in AI infrastructure and enables Anthropic to access advanced chips without upfront purchases, expanding financing options in the sector.

Financing structure for Anthropic chip purchases

As reported by Bloomberg, the transaction brings together Bank of America, Blackstone, Citigroup and Morgan Stanley to provide committed financing for a new special purpose vehicle tied to Anthropic’s chip procurement.

The vehicle is set up to buy Broadcom chips and lease them to Anthropic, according to a joint statement from the firms on Monday. Broadcom is also backstopping part of the financing through residual value support, a structure that helps underpin the assets’ value.

AI infrastructure demand drives larger capital commitments

The arrangement highlights how chipmakers and financial institutions are developing more complex funding models as AI developers require larger volumes of advanced hardware. For Broadcom, the deal links semiconductor sales to a long-term financing mechanism that can support customer demand at scale.

 

The involvement of several major financial firms also points to growing institutional interest in AI-related infrastructure exposure. The structure gives Anthropic access to leased chips rather than requiring a direct upfront purchase, potentially broadening financing options in the fast-expanding AI sector.

Our earlier article on U.S. AI data center buildouts examined how rising financing costs, construction delays, and power constraints are making large-scale expansion harder to execute. We noted that only a portion of planned projects look credible and that investor confidence can weaken when budgets overrun or timelines slip—putting more emphasis on robust, sustainable funding structures.
