Three decades of partnership, discipline and execution across global markets.

Our History

Hudson traces its origins to 1995, when Lone Star’s founder, John Grayken, established Brazos Advisors, L.L.C. — Hudson’s predecessor — to manage the assets of Lone Star’s first fund. Since then, Hudson has expanded internationally, evolving with Lone Star’s growth across private equity, credit and real estate.

For 30 years, Hudson has served as Lone Star’s dedicated execution partner, providing advisory, administrative and support services that translate investment strategies into action across global markets.

Our Experience

• 30-year partnership with the Lone Star Funds, spanning multiple investment cycles and asset classes.

• Approximately 1.1 million assets managed, representing $279.4 billion in approximate aggregate purchase price (including acquisition financing and co-investors).

• $1.5 trillion underwritten globally since 2014, reflecting Hudson’s scale and analytical reach.

• $50.9 billion in assets under management (net book value).

The Value of Experience

Hudson has developed deep market knowledge and global insight through this long-standing partnership. Decades of transactional experience have built a foundation of disciplined execution, scale and perspective that supports Lone Star’s strategies across changing economic conditions. Hudson’s approach is grounded in data, risk awareness and the consistent pursuit of value creation.
