Our assets under management, which now total over approximately $512 billion, help secure the benefits of 29 million pensioners in the United States and millions more internationally, and advance the goals of charitable organizations, academic institutions and governments around the world. While each of our four main business groups – private equity, real estate, hedge fund solutions, and credit – is already an acknowledged leader in its respective market, innovation and entrepreneurship are at the core of our business, and we are constantly developing new investment products and services. This approach, coupled with our strong focus on developing and keeping excellent relationships with all of our stakeholders, has paid off.
