Blue Owl Capital Inc.

Blue Owl Capital Inc. is an American alternative investment asset manager headquartered in New York City. The firm's core business revolves around providing private capital solutions to drive long-term growth for businesses. Its mission is to redefine alternatives by transitioning private market strategies, such as direct lending and real estate, from niche products to mainstream, stable investment solutions accessible to a broader range of investors, aiming to deliver strong performance, risk-adjusted returns, and capital preservation.

Blue Owl Capital operates through three primary business segments: Credit (direct lending), GP Strategic Capital (providing minority equity and financing to private capital investment managers), and Real Assets (focusing on private equity real estate). These platforms offer tailored financial solutions to a diverse client base, including institutional investors, individual investors, insurance companies, alternative asset managers, and growth technology companies, particularly serving middle-market companies and corporate real estate owners and tenants.

As of the first quarter of 2026, Blue Owl Capital reported $314.9 billion in assets under management (AUM), reflecting a 15% year-over-year increase. The firm demonstrated robust fundraising momentum, securing $11.0 billion in new capital commitments during Q1 2026, with $9.0 billion in new equity capital. Led by Co-CEOs Doug Ostrover and Marc Lipschultz, Blue Owl maintains a significant market position, particularly in GP minority stakes, and continues to expand access to private markets for individual investors, despite recent scrutiny regarding liquidity in some private credit funds.
