Arrow Global Secures €4.2 Billion in Institutional Commitments for European Private Credit and Real Estate
Arrow Global Group (“Arrow”), a leading pan-European investment manager in private credit and real estate, today announced significant fundraising milestones that demonstrate strong momentum and sustained investor confidence in its ability to source and execute granular, asset-backed opportunities across Europe.
€1.5 Billion Final Close for Arrow Lending Opportunities Fund I
Arrow has completed the final close of its Arrow Lending Opportunities (“ALO”) Fund I at €1.5 billion, exceeding its original target of €1 billion. This achievement marks a major step forward in Arrow’s European real estate lending strategy, which addresses a clear market need by offering flexible, real estate-backed financing solutions in response to the tightening of traditional bank lending.
ALO received strong backing from a globally diversified group of institutional investors, including public and private pension funds, insurance companies, sovereign wealth funds and endowments across Europe, North America and Asia. This demand reflects growing investor conviction in Arrow’s disciplined investment approach, its proven ability to source opportunities through a deep local presence, and its differentiated track record in European private credit and real estate.
Arrow received a $400 million commitment from a wholly owned subsidiary of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (“ADIA”), ranking among the largest global private credit fund allocations in 2024[i]. This investment underlines Arrow’s ability to build long-term relationships with leading institutional investors.
€2.7 billion Raised for European Credit Opportunities and Related Credit Strategies
Arrow has raised €2.7 billion in new commitments to its European credit strategies, reflecting continued investor appetite for resilient, asset-backed credit across Western Europe. This includes a €300 million commitment from CPPIB Credit Investments Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (“CPP Investments”), further strengthening the strategic relationship between the two organisations.
Arrow’s credit opportunities platform is grounded in long-term structural market dynamics, including regulatory dislocation, the retreat of traditional lenders, and increasing complexity in sourcing, structuring and managing specialised credit. With 25 local investment and servicing platforms across the continent and a team of over 4,700 professionals, Arrow is exceptionally well positioned to originate, underwrite and manage credit at scale, deploying capital with speed, precision and discipline across jurisdictions.
Zach Lewy, Founder, Group Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer of Arrow Global, said:
“Achieving a final close of €1.5 billion for ALO, surpassing our original target, and securing commitments of €2.7 billion into our expanding credit strategies demonstrate the trust our investors place in Arrow. That trust is built on our disciplined approach, deep sector knowledge, and strong local expertise.
As traditional lenders continue to retreat, private credit plays an increasingly central role in financing Europe’s real estate and credit markets. We are well positioned to capitalise on these opportunities and to deliver compelling, risk-adjusted returns for our investors, who we view as long-term partners in our strategy. Our structural advantage across Europe’s asset-backed mid-market, combined with proven granular execution capability, gives us access to opportunities typically out of reach, and our investors are the ultimate beneficiaries of that differentiated position.”
