Hayfin has secured initial capital commitments to support the growth of its European CLO business, as part of a broader initiative to deepen its European alternative credit capabilities and scale the Hayfin platform.

Hayfin has a long and established track record in European CLOs, currently managing €5.8 billion in assets across 14 transactions, following the completion of four successful resets in 2025. These latest capital commitments will support continued growth in the platform by providing equity for future European CLOs issued and managed by Hayfin.

As part of this renewed strategic focus on its core European investing businesses, Hayfin has decided to appoint Greensledge as an advisor to explore options for its US CLO business, which represents €1.4 billion of assets under management. The US CLO platform has historically performed strongly, supported by disciplined underwriting and rigorous credit processes, and the firm is committed to an orderly process that protects the interests of noteholders and other investors.

Mark Tognolini, Co-Founder & Co-CEO of Hayfin Capital Management, said: “We are excited to announce this latest capital raise which supports the continued growth of our European platform, particularly in light of the significant opportunity we see as an established player within European liquid credit. With a strong team and experienced leadership in place, we are confident in our ability to execute with discipline and a continued focus on clients.

“The US CLO team has a strong historical track record and we are committed to ensuring continuity for investors throughout this process. We will work closely with the team and Greensledge to identify the best outcome for all stakeholders.”
