Bridge Investment Group Holdings is a diversified alternative investment manager founded in 2009 and headquartered in Salt Lake City/Sandy, Utah. Over more than a decade, the company expanded into real estate private equity, credit, renewable energy, and secondaries, functioning through a vertically integrated national operating platform. The firm built its strategy around specialized investment verticals—multifamily, workforce and affordable housing, senior housing, single-family rental, office, industrial net lease, and real estate-backed credit—supporting approximately $47–50 billion in assets under management prior to its acquisition. Bridge became known for its data-driven investment approach, intensive operational oversight, and multi-vertical structure allowing for capital deployment across U.S. markets with varying risk/return profiles.
As of 2024–2025, Bridge managed capital for institutional investors and thousands of individual clients through roughly 25 investment vehicles. Its portfolio spanned more than 90,000 residential units across multifamily, workforce, affordable, and senior housing categories, as well as 13.6 million square feet of industrial and logistics real estate. In 2021, Bridge went public on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker BRDG and continued to operate as a leading middle-market real estate manager with more than 2,250 employees. The company’s investment reach broadened further in 2023 through the acquisition of Newbury Partners, establishing a presence in the private equity secondaries market.
By February–September 2025, Apollo Global Management entered and completed an all-stock acquisition valued at approximately $1.5 billion, integrating Bridge into Apollo’s expanding global real estate and credit platform while preserving Bridge’s brand, management team, and investment structure. Bridge now operates as a standalone platform company within Apollo, providing expanded scale, distribution, and vertical diversification across its real estate and credit strategies.
