HPS was established in 2007 as a unit of Highbridge Capital Management, LLC (“HCM”), a subsidiary of JPMorgan Asset Management (“JPMAM”). On March 31, 2016, the senior executives of HPS acquired HPS and its subsidiaries from JPMAM and HCM (the “Transaction”). [i] Following the Transaction, JPMAM retained a passive minority investment in HPS, which was subsequently redeemed in April 2022. In June 2018, affiliates of Dyal Capital Partners made a passive minority investment in HPS. In February 2022, an affiliate of The Guardian Life Insurance Company of America made a passive minority investment in HPS, which was subsequently increased in August 2024. On July 1, 2025, BlackRock acquired the business and assets of HPS, with 100% of consideration paid in BlackRock equity (the “HPS/BlackRock Transaction”).
The HPS/BlackRock Transaction brings together BlackRock’s corporate and asset owner relationships with HPS’s diversified origination and capital flexibility. BlackRock and HPS have formed a new private financing solutions business unit (“PFS”) led by Scott Kapnick, Scot French, and Michael Patterson, creating an integrated franchise with approximately $370 billion in client assets, including $205 billion of private credit assets. [ii] This combined platform, which has more than 590 investment professionals and approximately 1,300 employees globally, [iii] offers broad capabilities across senior and junior credit solutions, asset-based finance, real estate, CLOs and GP-LP solutions. As part of the HPS/BlackRock Transaction, Scott Kapnick, Scot French, and Michael Patterson have joined BlackRock’s Global Executive Committee, and Scott Kapnick has been appointed as an observer to the BlackRock Board.
[i] Prior to the Transaction, HPS was a subsidiary of HCM, which is a subsidiary of JPMAM, which in turn is a subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co. (together with its affiliates, “JPM”). Immediately following the closing of the Transaction, the portfolio managers and other HPS employees responsible for the investment activities of HPS separated from HPM and continued to be employees of HPS. HPS is no longer deemed affiliated with JPM.
[ii] AUM for PFS as of September 2, 2025. Note: Effective July 1, 2025, HPS became part of BlackRock. Effective September 2, 2025, Elm Tree Funds became part of BLK and is included within HPS funds. Headcount as of date varies given recent closings of transactions. All AUM of June 30, 2025, except BlackRock non-CLO Leveraged Finance assets (as of August 2025). Represents pro forma combined AUM of HPS funds and BlackRock funds that form Private Financing Solutions (“PFS”) as of June 30, 2025. AUM of heritage HPS private credit funds, related managed accounts and certain other closed-ended liquid credit funds represent capital commitments during such funds’ investment periods and, post such funds’ investment periods, the cost of investment or latest available net asset value (including fund-level leverage but in all cases capped at capital commitments). AUM of liquid credit open-ended funds and related managed accounts other than CLOs represent the latest available net asset value. AUM of CLOs and warehouses represent the par value of collateral assets and cash in the portfolio. AUM of business development companies represents net asset value plus leverage (inclusive of drawn and undrawn amounts) as of the prior month-end. AUM of ElmTree Funds represents the gross assets plus uncalled commitments over a fund’s life with the exception of ElmTree Unity Debt Fund, LP which represents total commitments of the fund. AUM strategy is assigned at the fund level based on target strategy allocations. The AUM for heritage BlackRock funds is calculated as follows: (i) for evergreen funds, commingled funds and mandates in their investment period: as the sum of fee-paying and any non-fee-paying client commitments, and the maximum permissible leverage for any levered vehicles; (ii) for commingled funds and mandates in runoff: as the aggregate of each fund's net asset value, any unfunded commitments to portfolio companies, and drawn leverage as of the reporting date, if any; and (iii) for semi-liquid funds: as the aggregate of each fund's net asset value. In all cases, AUM is inclusive of internal BlackRock allocations. The AUM figures are presented in US dollars.
[iii] Effective July 1, 2025, HPS became part of BlackRock. Effective September 2, 2025, Elm Tree Funds became part of BLK and is included within HPS funds. Headcount as of date varies given recent closings of transactions.
