HPS Investment Partners / Highbridge Capital Management differences?

Curious if anyone could explain what the main points of differentiation between HPS Investment Partners / Highbridge Capital Management are.

HPS was spun out from Highbridge a few years back, have AUM of $62B, and have an overview of their investment strategies on their website. Focus mainly on private debt but with sizeable presence in public credits as well. What is Highbridge's AUM and where do they play in the credit HF world? Also would appreciate any insight into comp / overall brand recognition / culture / which firm has more focus on distressed.

Thanks in advance!
