CION Ares Diversified Credit Fund Reaches Milestone Six-Year Track Record

CION Ares Management LLC, a joint venture between affiliates of CION Investments (“CION”), a leading manager of alternative investment solutions for individual investors, and Ares Management Corporation (“Ares”), a leading global alternative investment manager, announced that the CION Ares Diversified Credit Fund (“CADC” or the “Fund”) has reached a milestone six-year track record.

The Fund was incepted on January 26, 2017, and has a history of consistent asset growth and a strong track record of creating shareholder value. As of December 31, 2022, CADC had approximately $3.6 billion in total managed assets, and in 2022 the annualized distribution rate of the Fund’s Class I shares increased more than 26%, from $1.39 per share to $1.76 per share.

Credit alternatives have seen strong demand over the last several years as investors continue to seek sources of income that can smooth portfolio volatility through diversification away from public markets.

CION Co-CEO Michael A. Reisner noted, “We were early believers that individual investors wanted access to institutional-quality credit alternatives. We committed to this belief by building a fund that is broadly accessible and offers investors a differentiated product. Our business model goes further by ensuring that we provide financial advisors with the educational and distribution support they need to include credit alternatives in their clients’ portfolios.”

Through a continuously offered interval fund structure, CADC invests in illiquid and liquid credit investments, seeking superior risk-adjusted returns across various market cycles. The Fund employs a dynamic asset allocation framework, leveraging the advisor’s extensive operational resources, infrastructure and origination network. The Fund is currently distributed through a broad universe of RIAs, independent broker-dealers, and wirehouses.
