Ares Management Corporation
A global alternative investment manager that lends to and invests in middle-market companies across credit, real estate, infrastructure, and private equity. Founded in 1997 in Los Angeles by Antony Ressler and colleagues, the firm started with a focus on credit and leveraged loans before expanding into other strategies. Its name comes from Ares, the ancient Greek god of war, chosen by the founders to evoke courage and strength.
