Sun Life's Strategic Acquisition

Canada's Sun Life Financial has made a significant move to support humanitarian workers, acquiring the remaining stakes in BGO and Crescent Capital.

BGO A Real Estate Powerhouse

Founded through the merger between Bentall Kennedy and GreenOak in 2019, BGO is a leader in the real estate investment management space. With Sun Life's majority ownership, BGO is well-positioned to continue providing innovative solutions for its clients.

Crescent Capital A Leader in Alternative Credit

Crescent Capital, a leader in alternative credit investment management since 2021, has established itself as a key player in the financial industry. The acquisition of the remaining stake by Sun Life will enable Crescent Capital to further establish itself as a go-to partner for investors seeking alternative credit opportunities.

Shenanigans The Unforeseen Factor
