About This Fund
Bregal Sagemount Credit Solutions is an approximately $800 million private credit fund managed by Bregal Sagemount, a New York-headquartered growth equity and credit firm founded in 2012. The fund achieved its final close in September 2024, representing Bregal Sagemount's first dedicated credit vehicle after more than a decade of equity-only investing. It is structured as a dual-series fund encompassing an Opportunistic Credit series targeting higher-return subordinated and bespoke instruments, and a levered Direct Lending series designed to deliver competitive current yields.
The fund provides non-dilutive debt capital to the same technology-enabled growth companies targeted by the firm's equity strategies — including software, information and data services, financial technology, digital infrastructure, healthcare IT, and business services businesses in North America and Europe. Individual credit transactions range from $15 to $100 million, with the Opportunistic Credit series pursuing mezzanine, second-lien, and bespoke subordinated instruments, while the Direct Lending series offers senior secured facilities with leverage to enhance yield. The dual-series architecture allows LPs to choose their preferred risk-return profile while the shared deal origination platform leverages the firm's decades of relationships in the growth company ecosystem.
At final close, Bregal Sagemount Credit Solutions had completed five investments across both series, demonstrating rapid deployment from day one. The fund was anchored by leading pension fund investors with long-term private credit commitments. Bregal Sagemount has cumulatively raised $7.5 billion across equity and credit funds since 2012 and manages more than 70 active and exited portfolio companies. Scott Simpson leads the credit solutions franchise, positioning the vehicle to deliver approximately $1.0 billion of total deployable capital — including leverage on the Direct Lending series — to founder-owned and sponsor-backed growth companies that prize certainty, speed, and structural flexibility over lowest-cost execution.
