TPG’s Angelo Gordon acquisition helps boost credit AUM by 10pc in Q2
TPG has reported 65 per cent year-on-year growth in its assets under management (AUM) to $229bn (£180bn) in the second quarter, boosted by its acquisition of credit and real estate manager Angelo Gordon last year.
The alternative asset manager’s credit division saw its AUM rise 10.1 per cent from $61.3m at the start of the quarter to $67.5m as of 30 June.
This was accompanied by more marginal AUM growth in other segments, such as capital and impact.
TPG acquired Angelo Gordon last year, in a deal that was valued at $2.7bn. It was deemed a “strategic transaction” which strengthened TPG’s position as a diversified manager across private equity, credit, real estate and market solutions.
