Bain Performing Credit vs. Ares/Blue Owl/KKR/Golub/Blackstone etc

Haven't seen much info on Bain Credit (specifically performing credit) and wondering how they compare to other MF credit arms and fast growing lenders like Ares/Golub/Blue Owl. Feel like I've seen lots of press on other lenders scaling a bit more and being more and more active leading large direct deals. Curious if folks view them as a big player/relevant on regular way credit or if they're more active in distressed/special sits. Obviously the name carries cachet, but not sure how they stack up if evaluating them versus a Blackstone, KKR or even Ares, Golub, etc. 

 

Golub has incredibly consistent returns. However, the mgmt team are truly a bunch of pricks.
