CION Ares Diversified Credit Fund Announces Increase to Distribution Rate and Pricing of Preferred Shares

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”) will increase its distribution rates for all share classes, effective as of April 1, 2023.

The annualized distribution rate for Class I, the Fund’s largest share class, will increase to 8.25% on NAV, as of February 28, 2023, representing a 15% increase to the distribution rate for Class I. Other share classes may be available at certain intermediaries. More information regarding the distribution rate increase can be found in the Form 8-K filing dated as of March 6, 2023.

The Fund’s distribution rate has been increased four times over the last year, reflective of the portfolio’s ability to generate significant current income.

In addition to the distribution rate increase, the Fund recently priced $150 million of preferred shares. Proceeds from the issuance are expected to be primarily used for investments and for general corporate purposes.

CION co-CEO Michael A. Reisner noted, "We believe that the Fund offers a compelling investment opportunity, as the dynamic allocation process allows it to take advantage of opportunities in all market conditions. The broadly diversified portfolio comprises more than 600 issuers, and the rigorous underwriting standards and defensive investments position the portfolio to perform throughout market and economic uncertainty.”

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