BX GSO versus Tact Opp?

Hi guys:

What are the differences between Blackstone’s GSO team vs it’s tactical opportunities team please? Been reading LinkedIn profiles of people from both teams and seem very similar?

Thank you

They do overlap quite a bit in terms of what kind of projects they undertake. TacOps are very much industry agnostic and derive some opportunities from the PE/ GSO origination.
