Oaktree Gardens OLP
Oaktree Capital Management is a Los Angeles-based global alternative investment management firm founded in 1995 by Howard Marks, Bruce Karsh, and other partners, specializing in opportunistic, value-oriented investing across credit and other alternative strategies. The firm is a majority-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Asset Management and manages approximately $190 billion in assets for a global institutional investor base. Oaktree is universally recognized as one of the preeminent credit-focused alternative investment managers in the world, known for its contrarian, value-oriented investment philosophy and the intellectual leadership of its founders — particularly Howard Marks, whose investment memos are widely read and cited across the investment industry.
Oaktree's investment platform spans multiple credit and alternative strategies, including distressed debt, high-yield bonds, convertible securities, real estate, infrastructure, power generation, and listed equities. The firm's flagship opportunistic credit strategy seeks to invest in out-of-favor, distressed, or complex credit situations where fundamental value is temporarily mispriced, generating returns from both credit income and capital appreciation as prices normalize. Oaktree Real Estate Debt, Real Estate Equity, and Infrastructure Investment platforms provide diversified exposure to real assets across various risk profiles, while its listed equities platform targets undervalued companies across global equity markets.
Oaktree Capital Management has built a distinguished 30-year track record as a pioneer and leader in alternative credit investing, consistently recognized among the world's top alternative investment managers. The firm's founders' intellectual contributions to the investment management profession, its global institutional client relationships, and its integration within Brookfield Asset Management have expanded its resources and global reach while preserving the Oaktree investment culture and process that has driven its long-term success. Oaktree remains one of the most trusted and respected names in alternative credit investing, particularly in distressed and opportunistic credit strategies.
