Apollo is solidifying the arrangement with a deal announced this year to buy the piece of Athene it doesn’t already own. Its rivals have all made recent movesaimed at catching up.\nBlackstone has led the charge on the industry’s other major permanent-capital front: individual investors. The firmhas been investing for yearsto create infrastructure to distribute and market products aimed at moderately wealthy individuals—a market it estimates is worth $80 trillion—and it has become clear in recent quarters that the effort is paying off in a big way.\nBREIT, the firm’s nontraded real-estate investment trust, and BCRED, a private-credit product likewise aimed at individual investors, have been raising a combined $4 billion in new capital each month, the firm said during its second-quarter earnings call last month.\nBlackstone’s peers are starting to follow suit. KKR in May rolled out a product to offer private real estate to individual investors. Apollo said Wednesday it is investing in its own retail distribution channel, with the goal of making individual investors a material piece of its third-party inflows in the next three-to-five years.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"BX":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":325,"commentLimit":10,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"symbols":[],"verified":2,"subType":0,"readableState":1,"langContent":"EN","currentLanguage":"EN","warmUpFlag":false,"orderFlag":false,"shareable":true,"causeOfNotShareable":"","featuresForAnalytics":[],"commentAndTweetFlag":false,"andRepostAutoSelectedFlag":false,"upFlag":false,"length":7,"xxTargetLangEnum":"ORIG"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"isTiger":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"url":"/m/post/899112533"}
