🦉 Difficult year continues for Blue Owl

Public worries over the world of private debt have forced major lender Blue Owl Capital to scrap plans to give a clear way out to shareholders in one of its private funds.

The situation draws more scrutiny to the opaque world of private debt, which has boomed in recent years - and is now gradually making its way into millions of American brokerage and retirement accounts.

New York-based Blue Owl, one of the nation's largest private lenders, called off a planned merger on Thursday that would have combined two of its debt funds - a smaller private fund ($1.7 billion) and a larger public fund ($17.1 billion). Blue Owl’s stock is down 40% year to date. Yahoo Finance reports.
