Credit
Charlesbank Credit’s strategy is designed to benefit from the insights, angles and opportunities generated from the firm's 27-year private equity platform. We believe our experience, network and integrated approach set us apart – giving us more information to underwrite our investments and allowing us to invest with clarity in misunderstood situations. Our proven strategy enables us to provide flexible credit solutions to suit the dynamic needs of high-quality middle-market businesses across different market environments.
