Descriptiontext

Bardin Hill Investment Partners is a US-based private credit and investment advisory firm founded in 1981 and headquartered in New York. The firm specializes in opportunistic credit, CLO (collateralized loan obligation) management, and private credit investment strategies, serving institutional investors and insurance company allocators. With a team of 51-100 employees and approximately $3 billion in assets under management at the time of acquisition, Bardin Hill operates a focused credit platform centered on North American markets.

On October 1, 2025, Bardin Hill was acquired by Man Group plc (LSE: EMG), a London-listed alternative asset manager, for $81 million. The transaction added $2.7 billion in AUM to Man Group's credit platform and expanded Man Group's footprint in North American credit markets. Post-acquisition, Bardin Hill operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Man Group, with senior leadership including Jason Dillow serving as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer.

Bardin Hill's business model is built on institutional asset management fees charged on managed AUM across CLO vehicles, private credit funds, and opportunistic credit strategies. The firm's revenue is driven by blended management fee rates on its credit portfolios, supplemented by performance fees on opportunistic strategies. Through the Man Group acquisition, Bardin Hill gains access to a global distribution platform, a publicly-traded parent's balance sheet, and Man Group's proprietary AI infrastructure (including the ManGPT platform and Anthropic partnership), positioning it to scale its US credit franchise within a larger alternative asset management ecosystem.
