DESCRIPTION:

Date updated:05-12-2008

Fortress Investment Group LLC is a leading global alternative asset manager with approximately $29.7 billion in assets under management, of which almost $10 billion is invested via its hedge fund. Fortress is headquartered in New York and has affiliates with offices in Dallas, San Diego, Toronto, London, Rome, Frankfurt and Sydney.

Fortress was founded in 1998 as an asset-based investment management firm with a fundamental philosophy premised on alignment of interests with the investors in its funds. Fortress’s managed funds primarily employ absolute return strategies. Investment performance is Fortress’s cornerstone – as an investment manager, the firm earns more if its investors earn more. In keeping with the fundamental philosophy, Fortress invests substantial capital in each of the managed investment funds.

The hedge fund business that manages approximately $10 billion of the firm assets is comprised of two business segments: (i) hybrid hedge funds – which make highly diversified investments globally in undervalued and distressed assets, including loans, assets and corporate securities; and (ii) liquid hedge funds – which invest globally in fixed income, currency, equity and commodity markets and related derivatives to capitalize on imbalances in the financial markets.
