What is the latest Ares Special Opportunities fund?
Ares Special Opportunities III Access LLC, which first filed a Form D on Dec 19, 2024. Its own page carries the filed terms, the people named on the form and every filing on EDGAR.
Who is the adviser to the Ares Special Opportunities funds?
Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (RIA, CRD 107738), joined from Form ADV Schedule D, where an adviser lists each private fund it advises and the fund's Form D file number.
How much have the Ares Special Opportunities funds raised?
Each vehicle reports an amount sold and an investor count on its latest Form D or amendment, and those figures are on each vehicle's entity page. The totals by generation are in the AltStreet Terminal (Investor), where master and parallel sleeves that report one family-wide figure are counted once.
How does AltStreet group these funds into a family?
By name: the base name minus the fund number, sleeve letters, jurisdiction and legal form, read from each issuer's Form D (lib/edgar/fundFamilies.ts). 'Fund IV' is generation 4; a vehicle whose name carries no number is listed as unnumbered. It is a name-based grouping, not a statement of common control; the filings on each entity page show the related persons as filed.
