The alternative investment giant is dipping into the ETF space through a partnership with State Street, a filing with the SEC shows.
Apollo Global Management Inc. is working on its first exchange-traded fund, linking up with State Street Corp. on an offering that will include private credit investments.
State Street registered the SPDR SSGA Apollo IG Public & Private Credit ETF, according to a regulatory filing on Tuesday. A portion of the fund will be allocated toward liquid credit, while Apollo will seek to originate a pocket of private credit investments for the vehicle.
State Street joins firms like BlackRock Inc. and Invesco Ltd. that are looking to make private assets more accessible to individual investors, with Tuesday’s filing being first out of the gate. Apollo Chief Executive Officer Marc Rowan said in May that he was planning to expand its asset origination business to sell private credit to retail channels.

Beige Book-August 2024
September 4, 2024--Overall Economic Activity
Economic activity grew slightly in three Districts, while the number of Districts that reported flat or declining activity rose from five in the prior period to nine in the current period. Employment levels were steady overall, though there were isolated reports that firms filled only necessary positions, reduced hours and shifts, or lowered overall employment levels through attrition.
Still, reports of layoffs remained rare. On balance, wage growth was modest, while increases in nonlabor input costs and selling prices ranged from slight to moderate.
Consumer spending ticked down in most Districts, having generally held steady during the prior reporting period. Auto sales continued to vary by District, with some noting increases in sales and others reporting slowing sales because of elevated interest rates and high vehicle prices. Manufacturing activity declined in most Districts, and two Districts noted that these declines were part of ongoing contractions in the sector.
Residential construction and real estate activity were mixed, though most Districts' reports indicated softer home sales. Likewise, reports on commercial construction and real estate activity were mixed. District contacts generally expected economic activity to remain stable or to improve somewhat in the coming months, though contacts in three Districts anticipated slight declines.
