HIG Capital Strengthens Capital Solutions with $5.9 Billion Fund and New GP Platform

H.I.G. Capital has deepened its presence in private credit and secondaries with the close of its largest lending fund to date and the launch of a new GP Solutions Platform.

The firm raised $5.9 billion for WhiteHorse Middle Market Lending Fund IV, a vehicle dedicated to senior secured loans for companies generating $30–100 million of EBITDA. Since inception, WhiteHorse has deployed nearly $18 billion across 285 deals, underscoring demand for non-bank lending solutions in today’s market.

In tandem, H.I.G. established a GP Solutions Platform by recruiting four seasoned professionals from Morgan Stanley’s secondaries unit. The new team, led by Managing Director Dan Wieder, will target continuation vehicles and GP-led transactions. According to Alternatives Watch, the hires reflect H.I.G.’s growing interest in providing liquidity solutions to sponsors navigating longer hold periods.

Founded in 1993, H.I.G. manages $70 billion across private equity, real estate, direct lending, and infrastructure. With the dual expansion of its lending and secondaries capabilities, the firm is positioning itself to meet evolving market needs while diversifying its platform for long-term growth.
