With allocations to private credit increasing, finding the right manager – one with significant skill and experience – is critical.
We believe our scale, sourcing and selectivity translates into better performance outcomes over time.

The Antares Advantage
Scale
We believe our nearly three decades of experience, deep-rooted relationships with 400+ private equity firms and the expertise gained from managing one of the industry’s largest and most diverse portfolios, translates to a strength in scale and sourcing selectivity that is hard to match.
Experience
Demonstrated across multiple market cycles, Antares’ tenured credit culture has remained consistent since our founding nearly 30 years ago. We have the experience to understand that capital preservation is achieved through disciplined credit selection, diversified portfolios, and active account management.
Alignment
We customize investment opportunities, take meaningful principal risk alongside our investors, and continually bolster our capabilities to optimize optionality across asset classes and to capture relative value. We are not asset gatherers, but rather true co-investors focused on attractive risk-adjusted returns.
