The firm operates through four reportable segments plus other businesses:

About 84% of AUM is perpetual capital or long-dated funds, which generated 93% of management fees in the quarter. The firm distributes through institutional and global wealth channels, the latter via Ares Wealth Management Solutions, and operates across North America, South America, Europe, Asia Pacific and the Middle East.
