KKR Financial To Get $500 Million Cash Infusion From Investors

KKR Financial Holdings LLC, the beleaguered Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. affiliate that invests in bonds and loans, will receive a $500 million cash infusion from investors after being hurt by residential-mortgage losses.

KKR Financial is adding capital to weather a subprime- mortgage meltdown that has spread to corporate debt, stocks and currencies. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. last week put $2 billion into its Global Equity Opportunities hedge fund and lined up $1 billion more from investors after a 28 percent decline this month.
