About Redding Ridge Asset Management

Redding Ridge Asset Management LLC (“Redding Ridge”) was established and seeded by Apollo Global Management, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “Apollo”) in 2016. Redding Ridge has assets under management of approximately $44.2 billion as of October 31, 2025. Redding Ridge’s primary business consists of acting as collateral manager for CLO transactions and related warehouse facilities in both the U.S. and Europe.

About Structuring & Advisory

Redding Ridge’s Structuring & Advisory team plays a central role in managing Redding’s ~$44 billion of debt across Broadly Syndicated Loan (BSL) CLOs and Senior Unsecured Bonds, while also supporting Apollo’s Private Rated Credit and Asset-Backed Finance initiatives.

Redding does this by leveraging ABS, Corporate, and Fund rating methodologies to deliver the most efficient solutions. Since 2020, we have helped issue and rate over $225 billion of debt. By combining CLO, ABS, Corporate, and Fund rating methodologies, the Structuring & Advisory team has consistently innovated – both publicly and privately – to design next-generation rated solutions. Our success and growth has been driven by our ability to take a long-term, partnership-oriented approach.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
