When Blackstone s private debt arm reached a $4.5 billion close on its second European direct lending vehicle in March, the achievement was soon overshadowed by larger events just three days later the UK, along with much of Europe, was in full lockdown.
2020 had been off to a strong start, with two other sizable direct lending funds reaching a close in the weeks prior: Ardian closed on €3 billion (about $3.6 billion) for its fourth flagship credit fund, and its US peer Churchill Asset Management gathered $2 billion for its second mid-market fund.
