Brookfield Asset Management‘s decision to acquire a majority stake in Oaktree Capital Management will create an asset management behemoth.
The addition of Oaktree’s $66.5 billion private credit business means the pair will be able to offer access to a wide variety of alternatives. Together, their assets under management will stand at around $475 billion.

and both businesses have a value-driven, contrarian investment style with a focus on
