Blue Owl Capital Inc.
A manager of alternative investments, Blue Owl Capital lends directly to mid-sized businesses and buys stakes in other investment firms' management companies. The firm was born in 2021 when Owl Rock Capital, a direct lender, merged with Dyal Capital Partners, which invests in hedge funds and private equity firms. The name stitches the two together — "Owl" from Owl Rock and "Blue" from Dyal's signature color.
