Pollen Street AUM experiences a 35% surge, reaching a staggering £6.1 billion
Pollen Street Group Thrives in Mid-Market Alternatives and Asset-Based Lending
Pollen Street Group, a leading institution in the private credit market, has reported impressive financial results for the first half of 2025. The company, headed by CEO Lindsey McMurray, has seen a significant rise in its assets under management (AUM), which now stand at £6.1 billion – a 35% increase from the same period last year.
The surge in AUM has translated into substantial growth in various financial indicators. Operating profit for Pollen Street Group rose by 28% to £30.9 million, while operating profit after tax increased by 18% to £27.9 million. Management fees for the institution grew by 79% year-on-year, reaching £37.9 million, and fund management income was up 55% from £26.8 million to £41.4 million.
Pollen Street Group's Private Credit Fund IV is a standout performer, with commitments reaching £600 million as of the end of June 2025. The company expects to exceed the initial £1 billion target for this fund during the second half of the year. This expectation is bolstered by the outstanding performance of Private Equity Fund V and the £400 million deployed across the private credit strategy in H1 2025, which saw 14 new deals completed.
The institution also raised €2.4 billion for a junior capital fund in the first half of 2025. Pollen Street Group's success can be attributed to its differentiated platform, which attracts investor confidence. The company has a strong track record in capitalizing on trends in mid-market alternatives and asset-based lending, a sector that is experiencing growing demand.
Pollen Street Group remains confident in delivering its strategic objectives, with its CEO, Lindsey McMurray, leading the charge. The company's catch-up fees for H1 2025 amounted to £8.4 million, a testament to its robust performance. As the company continues to grow and innovate, it is poised to make a significant impact in the private credit market.
