Principal, CLO & Funds Securitization Counsel About Redding Ridge Asset Management

Redding Ridge Asset Management LLC ("Redding Ridge") was established and seeded by Apollo Global Management, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, "Apollo") in 2016. Redding Ridge has assets under management of approximately $44.2 billion as of October 31, 2025. Redding Ridge’s primary business consists of acting as collateral manager for CLO transactions and related warehouse facilities in both the U.S. and Europe.

Redding Ridge also provides structuring and ratings advisory services to issuers across various asset classes.

Redding Ridge’s Structuring & Advisory team plays a central role in managing Redding’s ~$44 billion of debt across Broadly Syndicated Loan (BSL) CLOs and Senior Unsecured Bonds, while also supporting Apollo’s Private Rated Credit and Asset-Backed Finance initiatives. Redding Ridge’s efforts span Apollo’s 16 platforms and multiple issuance shelves, and partnership. Redding does this by leveraging ABS, Corporate, and Fund rating methodologies to deliver the most efficient solutions.

Since 2020, we have helped issue and rate over $225 billion of debt. By combining CLO, ABS, Corporate, and Fund rating methodologies, the Structuring & Advisory team has consistently innovated – both publicly and privately – to design next‑generation rated solutions. Our success and growth have been driven by our ability to take a long‑term, partnership‑oriented approach.
