Akin advised GoldenTree Asset Management, a global asset management firm with over $53 billion in assets under management, in the closing of its Private Credit Fund with commitments of more than $1.35 billion, surpassing its target of $800 million to $1 billion.
GoldenTree Asset Management (GoldenTree), known for its prowess in the investment realm, proudly announced the closure of its Private Credit Fund. With commitments exceeding $1.35 billion, the fund soared past its initial target range of $800 million to $1 billion.

The Private Credit Fund boasts a global investor base, comprising public and corporate pensions, sovereign funds, foundations, insurance companies, family offices, and registered investment advisors across the United States, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. Notably, GoldenTree’s partners and employees personally committed over $50 million to the fund, showcasing the firm's unwavering belief in the strategy and alignment with investor interests.
Structured to offer capital-efficient access to the strategy, the Fund features a beneficial structure aimed at maximizing investor returns. Leveraging GoldenTree’s extensive experience in private credit investing spanning more than a decade, the firm delivers differentiated solutions to sponsors and issuers. With investments in approximately 30 portfolio companies across 10 industries, the Fund has already capitalized on multiple themes, drawing close to 50% of commitments. Impressively, it has achieved a net Internal Rate of Return of 22%.
GoldenTree, an employee-owned global asset management firm, specializes in opportunities across the credit universe, including high yield bonds, leveraged loans, private credit, distressed debt, structured products, emerging markets, private equity, and credit-themed equities.
