Oaktree is a leader among global investment managers specializing in alternative investments, with $172 billion in assets under management as of March 31, 2023. The firm emphasizes an opportunistic, value-oriented and risk-controlled approach to investments in credit, private equity, real assets and listed equities. The firm has 381 investment professionals, over 1,100 employees and offices in 20 cities worldwide.
We believe that the breadth of the Oaktree platform and the collective expertise of our management team will allow us to identify numerous initial acquisition targets across the industrial, consumer and other sectors. Our multi-decade track record of successful investing in both public and private markets gives us differentiated access and insights into a deep network of institutional investors worldwide, as well as a diversified portfolio of lending relationships. Our client base includes leading pension plans, insurance companies, endowments, foundations and sovereign wealth funds. Furthermore, Oaktree expects to leverage strong relationships with banks and other financial institutions as well as brokers and attorneys. This network of contacts is instrumental in obtaining access to investment opportunities, some of which are made available to Oaktree on a highly selective, and in some cases, an exclusive, basis.
