Nvidia financing platform to mobilize $500 billion for AI infrastructure

The platform is designed to provide customers access to scarce compute at scale, with Nvidia acting as a marketplace.

Nvidia plans to use a financing platform to support the AI infrastructure buildout by mobilizing more than $500 billion of third-party capital over time, according to Yahoo Finance.

The article says major asset managers and investment firms, including Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs and KKR, are expected to help fund the development of AI infrastructure, including Nvidia DSX AI factories.

The piece also notes that investor Michael Burry has criticized Nvidia’s approach, pointing to what he describes as rising leverage risks tied to off-balance-sheet commitments in the technology and cloud sectors, and he questioned the financing structure that he links to risks seen around the 2008-09 financial crisis.

Yahoo Finance adds that Nvidia positions the effort as part of a different AI cycle than the dotcom era, citing Goldman Sachs’ view that corporate profit margins have risen, while noting Nvidia’s data center and accelerated computing focus, FY26 revenue growth of 65% year over year to $215.9 billion, and FY26 operating cash flow of $102.7 billion.
