Ares Management Raises Record $36 Billion in Q2 2026 Fundraising Ares Management reported record Q2 2026 fundraising of over $36 billion, lifting assets under management to $671 billion and fee-paying AUM to $410 billion. Equity commitments to its flagship credit funds were $12.9 billion in the quarter, with total capital raised of $23.7 billion including leverage.
The company now holds $170 billion of dry powder and is working on its largest forward investment pipeline. Its Ares Credit funds closed $8.2 billion in U.S. direct lending commitments across 69 transactions in Q2 2026 and around $52.3 billion over the 12 months to June 30.
Ares Management shares trade at $128.09, with the stock down 23.0% year to date, and the company declared quarterly dividends on both its Class A common and 6.75% Series B mandatory convertible preferred stock.
This combination of record fundraising, sizeable undeployed capital and ongoing direct lending activity indicates that Ares Management currently has substantial capacity to deploy capital across credit and infrastructure. Investor outcomes will depend on how effectively that pipeline is executed and on broader credit conditions. Buy Or Sell Opportunity • Jul 31

Ares Management Considers Leonard Green Acquisition in Major Private Equity Expansion Ares Management is in preliminary talks to acquire mid-market private equity firm Leonard Green & Partners, which manages about $85b in assets, in a deal that would more than quadruple Ares’ buyout assets and broaden its alternatives platform beyond its traditional private credit focus.
Leonard Green’s focus on companies with resilient cash flows across areas such as distributors and consumer brands would add a different mix of exposures to Ares’ existing strategies and test the firms’ cultural and operational integration at a time of consolidation pressure in private equity.
Ares shares recently traded around $127.90, with the stock down 23.1% year to date, so investors are weighing this potential expansion against a weaker recent share price patch.
The key question is whether Ares can integrate a large private equity platform without diluting its existing strengths in private credit or creating execution and cultural risks that drag on returns. Buy Or Sell Opportunity • Jul 16

Clearstream Partnership Adds Ares Private Market Funds to European Platform Clearstream is partnering with Ares Management to add Ares’ private market strategies to Clearstream’s fund platform, aiming to broaden investor access and simplify the process for investing in private markets.
The collaboration is framed as supporting the European Union’s push to deepen capital markets by making it easier for private savings to flow into private investments, which could widen Ares Management’s reach among European investors.
Ares Management shares last closed at US$111.31, with the stock down 33.1% year to date.
This Clearstream partnership gives Ares Management another distribution channel in Europe at a time when the region is focused on routing more long-term savings into private assets. The implication is that Ares may gain incremental fundraising opportunities and more diversified capital sources, but execution risk remains around how much actual investor demand comes through the platform.

Ares Management Eyes Mexico’s $500 Billion Pension Market and Launches $1 Billion Funding Program Ares Management is targeting Mexico's Afores pension system, a pool of roughly $500b in assets, as reforms allow higher allocations to international private-market managers.
Executives from Ares Management and Blue Owl Capital have been meeting in Mexico City as they compete to secure roles managing portions of this growing Mexican pension market.
Ares Capital Corporation, affiliated with Ares Management, has launched its first commercial paper program, enabling issuance of up to $1b in short-term unsecured notes ranked pari passu with existing senior unsecured debt, supported by a revolving credit facility as a liquidity backstop.
These developments highlight Ares Management’s focus on expanding access to long-duration institutional capital, while also broadening its funding toolkit through Ares Capital’s new commercial paper program.
Investors may want to watch how successfully Ares converts Mexico’s regulatory opening into mandates and how the new short-term funding source affects Ares Capital’s funding costs and balance sheet flexibility. Upcoming Dividend • Jun 09

Ares Management Takes 80% Hit on Eagle Football Holdings Loans After Administration Move Ares Management has written down the value of its loans to Eagle Football Holdings, the sports investment group tied to US investor John Textor, by 80%.
The firm, which manages about $644b in assets, placed Eagle Football Holdings into administration in March after a prolonged dispute over the collapse of the group.
Eagle Football previously held stakes in several football clubs, including Crystal Palace, until last year, underscoring Ares’ exposure to high-profile sports-related credit.
The sharp write-down and move to administration highlight credit risk in Ares’ private lending to niche sectors such as sports franchises, even within a large and diversified alternatives platform.
Investors may want to watch for any further disclosures on recoveries, broader loan performance and whether this situation leads to changes in Ares’ underwriting standards or sector focus. New Risk • May 11
New major risk - Financial position The company's debt is not well covered by operating cash flow. Operating cash flow to total debt ratio: 13% This is considered a major risk. If the company's operating cash flows are too small relative to the size of their debt, it increases their balance sheet risk. The company has less cash from operations to cover its expenses from servicing large debt and it increases the risk of liquidity issues. It also extends the time it would take for the company to pay back the debt in full, meaning it may not be able to easily pay it all off in a distress scenario. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (13% operating cash flow to total debt). Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 185% Cash payout ratio: 110% Minor Risk Large one-off items impacting financial results. Reported Earnings • May 05
