The deal gave investors in Carlyle Credit Opportunities Fund II a liquidity option, while adding capital to support the media investment manager's growth.
PGIM, reinvesting LPs, and PennantPark also invested in the oversubscribed vehicle for a mature portfolio of private credit investments.
The oversubscribed vehicle provides liquidity to investors in Bridgepoint Direct Lending II, which holds a portfolio of senior secured European middle-market loans.
The alternative debt manager specializes in originating and providing financing solutions to small and middle-market enterprises.
The deal will transfer investments across 78 portfolio companies, representing approximately 48% of BlackRock TCP Capital's debt portfolio by fair value.
Potential backers reportedly sought a lower valuation for the loans held in the continuation fund.
The deal, first reported by SecondaryLink last month, comprises approximately 130 securities from a 2021-vintage direct lending fund.
The reported deal adds to a growing list of billion-dollar transactions in the private credit secondaries space.
The 2025 SecLink Awards winner has returned $4.6 billion of capital to investors through five strip sales over the past two years.
Last year, the mid-market credit alternatives specialist welcomed GP staker Hunter Point Capital as a minority investor.
