Private credit investment manager Eagle Point Credit Management has announced another year of strong growth in 2025, raising $3bn (£2.2bn) in capital and adding 35 team members.
During the year, it celebrated its defensive income strategy’s fifth year, with the strategy now representing almost $6bn in assets under management (AUM).
The firm also deployed a significant amount of capital through its strategic credit strategy and launched its infrastructure credit strategy, through which it originated eight transactions as a lead investor across businesses in renewable energy.

The firm was active in public and private asset-backed finance across more traditional asset classes, and it also originated multiple bespoke bilateral regulatory capital relief transactions. Eagle Point has now deployed nearly $1bn of capital in regulatory capital relief transactions in total.
The firm was also active in the collateralised loan obligation (CLO) market in 2025, directing a total of 76 refinancing and reset transactions, reducing the weighted average cost of debt on those CLO equity positions by 48 bps. The firm launched its third strategic CLO collateral management partnership during the year.

“Across our strategies, we continued to find areas of the market where structural complexity and active management can drive attractive outcomes for our investors, while maintaining an emphasis on downside protection,” said Thomas Majewski, founder and managing partner of Eagle Point.
“We are excited by the growth of Eagle Point’s platform in 2025, which we believe is a testament to the depth of our capabilities, the breadth of our strategies and the strength of our team. Eagle Point exists to redefine what is possible in private credit.”
