Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P.

At the firm level, Co-CEOs Joe Bae and Scott Nuttall oversee strategy and allocations, both having been promoted in 2021 (per public record). Individual investment committees exist for each asset class — private equity, credit, infrastructure, real estate — each with dedicated partner groups. Henry Kravis and George Roberts serve as Co-Executive Chairmen and remain involved in major strategic decisions.

KKR is a publicly traded asset manager, listed on the NYSE since 2010 under the ticker KKR. It is not a family office. The founding families maintain significant ownership stakes but the firm manages capital for institutional investors, sovereign wealth funds, pension plans, insurance companies, and increasingly high-net-worth individuals through retail channels.

KKR sources deals through its network of 23 global offices, industry relationships with management teams, and by leveraging its industry-specialized sector teams. The firm also generates proprietary opportunities via its permanent capital vehicles, including Global Atlantic insurance, and through its in-house operating team that works with portfolio companies to identify add-on acquisitions.

KKR targets all stages across its strategies — from growth equity in technology companies to controlling buyouts in mature industries, and from infrastructure greenfield projects to distressed debt and special situations in credit. The private equity group typically seeks majority or significant minority stakes, while the infrastructure and energy teams back both construction-stage and operating assets.

KKR primarily invests through its own closed-end funds and co-investment vehicles. The firm does not commit to external third-party funds as an LP. KKR raises capital from institutional investors for each strategy and also provides co-investment opportunities to those LPs alongside KKR's own balance sheet capital, which is a meaningful component of each fund.
