What stands out

Bloomberg aired comments from Ares Management’s CEO after the firm posted record fundraising and pushed assets under management (AUM) to $671 billion while beating earnings estimates. That matters because private-credit markets have been jittery this year. A giant fundraising quarter shows institutional demand hasn’t evaporated. It is concentrating with incumbents that can distribute capital and price risk.
