Equity-method Investments
The Company’s equity-method investments include its investments in funds and companies that are not consolidated, but for which the Company is deemed to have significant influence. The Company’s share of income or loss generated by these investments is recorded within investment income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company’s equity-method investments in Oaktree funds principally reflect the Company’s general partner interests in those funds, which typically do not exceed 2.5% in each fund. The Oaktree funds are investment companies that follow a specialized basis of accounting established by GAAP. In connection with the 2024 Restructuring, the Company determined that it is no longer the primary beneficiary of Oaktree Capital I and deconsolidated the entity, which is accounted for as an equity method investment beginning with the third quarter of 2024.
On June 27, 2023, the Company entered into a contribution agreement with Brookfield Corporate Treasury Ltd. and acquired the equity ownership in certain entities which beneficially own shares in Brookfield Real Estate Income Trust. The Company accounted for the acquired interests as equity method investments with fair value election. The fair value option has been elected to simplify the accounting for the investment in OCG NTR Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“NTR”). Changes in the fair value and cash dividends received from the investment in NTR are included in investment income. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized an equity investment loss of $7.9 million and $17.7 million. Please refer to note 14 for the detailed description of the transaction.
Each reporting period, the Company evaluates each of its equity-method investments to determine if any are considered significant, as defined by the SEC. As of March 31, 2025, or for the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company determined Oaktree Capital I met the significance criteria. No other individual equity method investment met the significance criteria.
Summarized financial information of Oaktree Capital I is set forth below.

Net Gains (Losses) From Investment Activities of Consolidated Funds
Net gains (losses) from investment activities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations consist primarily of realized and unrealized gains and losses on the consolidated funds’ investments (including foreign exchange gains and losses attributable to foreign-denominated investments and related activities) and other financial instruments. Unrealized gains or losses result from changes in the fair value of these investments and other financial instruments. Upon disposition of an investment, unrealized gains or losses are reversed and an offsetting realized gain or loss is recognized in the current period.
