The Carlyle Group Inc. (CG) is a leading global investment firm with $426 billion in assets under management (AUM) as of recent filings.

Carlyle's diversified portfolio spans industries such as aerospace, healthcare, technology, and energy, with a strong presence in North America, Europe, and Asia. Its competitive advantage lies in its deep industry expertise, global network, and ability to leverage proprietary deal flow through relationships with corporations and governments. The firm's fee-related earnings (FRE) and performance revenues provide a balanced revenue model, reducing reliance on volatile carry income.

Carlyle offers compelling exposure to alternative asset growth with a diversified platform and strong fee-related earnings. Near-term risks include fundraising headwinds in a higher-rate environment and carry realization volatility. However, its 12% dividend yield (2024E) and undervalued GP stake portfolio (20% of NAV) provide downside support. A 2025 P/Distributable Earnings of 8.5x suggests 25% upside to sector peers.
