Private Markets & Real Assets

Blackstone's chairman Stephen Schwarzman championed the enduring value of physical real estate and asset-based credit, arguing these sectors offer superior resilience against technological disruption compared to traditional corporate credit, particularly amid rising concerns about AI integration. This perspective aligns with the firm's massive deployment capacity, as Blackstone maintains a $310bn vantage point for capitalizing on technology shifts. Elsewhere in private equity infrastructure, KKR committed $1.5bn for tower assets, while Harbert Management secured an interim close of $450 million for a new fund strategy.
