CION Investments and Man Group Announce Partnership

Joint venture strives to bring private market capabilities to market through innovative, scalable product solutions.

CION Investments (CION), a leading manager and distributor of alternative investment solutions, today announced a joint venture partnership with Man Group, a global active asset manager with $139.5 billion in AUM.

The collaboration will begin with Man Global Private Markets (Man GPM), Man Group’s private markets business, which specializes in residential real estate equity and debt. Man GPM has over $3.3 billion in AUM including committed capital and has deployed more than $7 billion in capital across equity and debt investments since inception.

CION and Man Group will work together to create unique, scalable, and accessible investment solutions that leverage Man GPM’s origination, operational and asset management expertise and CION’s investment acumen, product management and distribution experience.

Man GPM has managed US residential real estate equity and debt investments since 2012, with a focus on single-family rentals and residential investment loans. Through its single-family rental investment platform, the firm has managed the acquisition and/or development of more than 5,200 homes/lots in 13 states and 18 markets across buy- and build-to-rent strategies. With respect to debt investments secured by residential investment properties, the firm has managed the financing of more than 18,000 single- and multi- family investment properties with an aggregate value of more than $10 billion through whole loan purchases, cross-collateralized senior credit facilities and direct property financing.

Michael A. Reisner and Mark Gatto, co-CEOs of CION, said: “We’re very excited about this new venture with Man Group as we look to further meet growing client demand for private market solutions. As an early entrant to US residential real estate, we believe Man Group has the scale, operational experience and portfolio management expertise needed in a partner in this space.”

Eric Burl, Head of Man GPM, said: “We’re looking forward to partnering with CION, a firm with a track record of delivering innovative alternative investment solutions for clients. Investors are increasingly looking to private markets to meet the need for more income and diversification in portfolios. As a firm built on a commitment to alpha generation, technological innovation, and risk management, we are confident we can add value to investors’ portfolios and are excited by the opportunity to bring our real estate platform to a broader range of investors.”
