effet de levier


Explanation:
Sans contexte, difficile de traduire ce 'could', mais le reste de la phrase serait quelque chose comme '...pouvoir profiter d'un effet de levier jusqu'à une certaine limite.'

to leverage up to a certain limit
obtenir un effet de levier, jusqu'à une certaine limite


Explanation:
The investor could be able to leverage up to a certain limit.
=
The investor could be able to + leverage + up to a certain limit.

"... pourrait être en mesure d'obtenir un effet de levier, jusqu'à une certaine limite."

Leverage = un effet de levier i.e. to obtain more results by leveraging than by straight/direct action; it doesn't necessarily mean getting deeper into debts; for example, one form of leverage involves getting the total control of a company while owning just few % of the total capital (while normally 51% would be required).

It's not specified in this ST what kind of leverage is involved, but a leverage is not s.t. that just happens, it's always a result that is actively sought after, thus "obtenir un effet de levier" is more appropriate than some neutral formulation.
