The fund’s portfolio comprises senior secured, sponsor-backed loans to US middle market borrowers, as well as other private credit opportunities.
In a statement, Bradley Schneider, Managing Director and Head of Private Credit at Cresset, said that CPCF had “delivered annualised distributions of 12.5% for the most recent two quarters”.
CPCF has also partnered with financial services group ORIX USA’s subsidiary, NXT Capital, a Chicago-based middle market direct lending platform operating through its direct lending group and targeting US-based borrowers with EBITDA between $5m and $50m. The partnership aims to provide individuals and family offices on Cresset’s platform with access to direct private lower middle market investment opportunities.
