Summary

Bloomberg reporter Loukia Gyftopoulou discusses Blackstone's two new private market funds aimed at retail investors, their structure, redemption limits, and distribution partnerships ahead of Blackstone's earnings.

  • Blackstone is launching two new perpetual funds for Main Street investors.
  • The funds invest across real estate, private credit, private equity, and infrastructure.
  • Redemption limits are set at 3% and 10% per quarter.
  • One fund includes a liquid sleeve managed by Vanguard and Wellington.
  • Distribution partners include Vanguard and Merrill Lynch, with expectation of wider rollout.
  • Ahead of earnings, wealth management is cited as a significant revenue driver for Blackstone.
  • The funds are not pure private credit, potentially reducing redemption panic risk.
