Crestline Closes Second European Fund at $625 Million
Institutional investors have committed $625 million to Crestline’s second European Capital Solutions Fund, a figure representing a 75 percent increase over the firm's inaugural vehicle. The capital raise underscores sustained global demand for flexible financing within the North and Western European lower-middle-market, where funding gaps remain a persistent challenge.
Michael Guy, Executive Managing Director and Head of European Credit, noted that the fund addresses a specific need for speed and underwriting expertise in the lower-middle-market. This strategy leverages the firm’s proprietary sourcing network to secure bilateral opportunities. As of March 31, 2026, Fort Worth-based Crestline managed approximately $18 billion in credit assets, operating as a subsidiary of Rithm Capital Corp.
