About This Fund
HPS Strategic Solutions Partners Platform is a joint investment platform formed by HPS Investment Partners and Lunate in October 2025 to pursue bespoke preferred equity, common equity, and related private debt investments in large corporate enterprises across the United States and Europe. Lunate anchors the platform with a projected long-term commitment of at least $1 billion, with both firms working to expand access to investors across the Middle East and North Africa. The platform represents a strategic expansion of HPS's corporate private credit franchise, combining HPS's origination expertise with Lunate's regional relationships and long-term capital.
The platform targets sponsor-owned and non-sponsor-owned large corporates with stable business models seeking customised capital solutions for strategic growth, acquisitions, or capital structure optimisation. The investment approach encompasses privately negotiated preferred equity instruments with complementary private debt tranches, providing corporates with flexible financing solutions that span the capital structure. HPS's broad experience across direct lending, high yield, and structured credit—backed by approximately $129 billion in assets under management—enables the platform to structure and execute complex cross-border transactions at scale.
HPS Investment Partners, founded in 2007 and acquired by BlackRock in 2025, manages a family of alternative credit strategies including Strategic Investment Partners (direct lending), Specialty Loan Fund, Core Senior Lending, and Corporate Lending. Lunate, a leading Abu Dhabi-based investment platform, brings deep MENA relationships and patient institutional capital that complements HPS's origination capabilities. Together, the platform creates a differentiated sourcing and execution engine targeting large-cap corporate financing situations that require both structural creativity and long-term capital commitment.
