Private Wealth Solutions - Investor Services, Analyst
The Blackstone Group LP, New York, NY
Blackstone is the world's largest alternative asset manager. We seek to create positive economic impact and long-term value for our investors, the companies we invest in, and the communities in which we work. We do this by using extraordinary people and flexible capital to help companies solve problems. Our $1.1 trillion in assets under management include investment vehicles focused on private equity, real estate, public debt and equity, infrastructure, life sciences, growth equity, opportunistic, non-investment grade credit, real assets and secondary funds, all on a global basis. Further information is available at www.blackstone.com. Follow [redacted] on LinkedIn, Twitter, and Instagram.
PWS works across Blackstone's global footprint, partnering with our investing businesses in every major asset class to deliver bespoke product that meets the needs of individual investors and smaller institutions-groups that in many cases have historically lacked access to leading alternative investments.
PWS harnesses the intellectual capital across Blackstone to gather and share a holistic view of the investment landscape and deliver the diversified platform of Blackstone to investors. By bringing together multiple asset classes in one fund, we can structure a mix of alternatives strategies which fit clients' asset allocation and portfolio construction objectives.
Blackstone's PWS Team collaborates directly with advisors of every type-from the large wealth management firms and private banks to independent dealers and advisors across the globe-delivering education around alternatives and Blackstone solutions that work for individual investors. As a leading general partner for many of the world's largest institutions, we understand their investment needs. With our PWS Group we can extend our reach to include the CIOs of smaller foundations, endowments and insurance companies who have struggled to achieve and manage a full alternatives allocation.
