Private Markets

Our private markets platform is composed of 57 investment professionals* dedicated to private opportunities globally. We manage traditional direct lending, parallel lending, capital solutions and aviation finance strategies. Our investment professionals are based in 12 of our 15 offices to be close to the companies in which we invest. We partner with our investors to construct portfolios that seek to meet their individual risk and return objectives. We also work to structure solutions that are sensitive to regulatory capital requirements.

Partnership Approach – We work in partnership with our portfolio companies by providing support and advice, as well as capital, on their growth journey. This close working relationship can also result in beneficial repeat transactions with the same borrower, as has been the case in our European strategies.

Local Presence – With local teams in many of the countries in which we invest, our on-the-ground approach helps generate deal flow and enables us to develop a nuanced understanding of our portfolio companies.

Experience – Our private market investment professionals are a diverse team with in-depth knowledge and experience, with careers spanning structured finance, middle market lending, banking, debt origination, restructuring and distressed debt. Their expertise in sourcing and arranging financing opportunities spans multiple countries and regions.
