5.12.2024 13:30:00 EET | Business Wire | Press release
Today, Eldridge Industries announced plans to launch Eldridge, an asset management and insurance holding company with approximately $74 billion in assets under management. Eldridge will be wholly owned by Eldridge Industries and consist of two divisions: Eldridge Capital Management and Eldridge Wealth Solutions.
Eldridge Capital Management will focus on four investment strategies – corporate credit, GP solutions, real estate credit, and sports, media, and entertainment – and will conduct business under the Eldridge brand. Eldridge Wealth Solutions, an insurance and retirement solutions platform, will be comprised of Eldridge’s wholly owned insurance companies, Security Benefit and Everly Life.
Eldridge will be managed by a newly formed Executive Committee, chaired by Todd Boehly, Chairman and CEO and controlling shareholder of Eldridge Industries. Mr. Boehly, in his capacity as Chairman of Eldridge’s Executive Committee, will be involved with strategic oversight and partnerships of both Eldridge Capital Management and Eldridge Wealth Solutions.
“Eldridge will bring together decades of collective experience, world-class structuring, proprietary origination expertise, and differentiated approaches to capitalize on what we believe to be the most attractive opportunity set in quite some time, and we are excited to enter this next chapter of growth,” said Mr. Boehly. “We are confident that the firm will provide the highest level of service and generate new, compelling investment opportunities.”
Tony Minella, Eldridge Industries Co-founder and President, who has worked alongside Mr. Boehly for approximately twenty-five years, will lead Eldridge Capital Management as Chief Executive Officer. Todd Gilbert and Nicholas Sandler will serve as Co-Presidents of Eldridge Capital Management.
Eldridge Wealth Solutions will be led by Doug Wolff as Chief Executive Officer and Joseph Wittrock as Chief Investment Officer.
Existing Eldridge Industries businesses and teams, including Maranon Capital, Security Benefit’s Corporate Credit team, Stonebriar Commercial Finance’s Investment team, Cain International’s Real Estate Credit team, and Panagram Structured Asset Management, will integrate under Eldridge Capital Management and be rebranded as follows:
- Eldridge Corporate Credit will be co-led by Jeffrey Forlizzi and Nicholas Sandler and invest across a broad spectrum of private, asset-backed, opportunistic, and structured credit. The strategy will thoroughly underwrite downside scenarios to provide a margin of safety and utilize a rigorous, fundamental-driven, and value-oriented approach emphasizing deep investment research while balancing company, industry, and macro risks.
- Eldridge GP Solutions will be led by David Lee and invest in market-leading businesses through attractive middle-market GP-led transactions, including GP-led single-asset continuation vehicles, direct GP-led transactions, and provide other comprehensive capital and liquidity solutions to GPs.
- Eldridge Real Estate Credit will be led by John Cole andtake a disciplined, patient approach to investment in real estate credit opportunities across the U.S., U.K., and Europe by investing in construction, bridge, and special situation opportunities across the capital structure, primarily in gateway cities with best-in-class sponsors and assets.
- Eldridge Sports, Media, and Entertainment will be led by Jeff Wilbur and make investments in private companies that create and own premium intellectual property that can be distributed and monetized in multiple ways within the sports, media, and entertainment sectors.
Eldridge will have offices in New York, Greenwich, Beverly Hills, Chicago, Dallas, Atlanta, Overland Park, Des Moines, Topeka, London, and Abu Dhabi.
The transaction is expected to close in January 2025.
