Oaktree Capital Management, L.P.
Howard Marks · Los Angeles, CA · Founded 1995
Oaktree Capital Management is a Los Angeles-based investment firm founded in 1995 by Howard Marks and Bruce Karsh. It specializes in credit — distressed debt, high-yield bonds, and other less-efficient corners of the market — under a risk-first philosophy Marks distills in his widely-read investor memos and the book "The Most Important Thing."
Brookfield Asset Management acquired a majority stake in Oaktree in 2019, leaving the investment team independent. The firm's book is dominated by credit; the 13F below captures only its US-listed equity and equity-linked positions, so it is a narrow slice of what Oaktree manages.
History
Howard Marks and Bruce Karsh launch the firm to specialize in distressed debt and other inefficient credit markets.
Oaktree lists publicly, giving outside investors a stake in the management company.
Brookfield Asset Management acquires ~62% of Oaktree while the investment teams stay independent.
