Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
ORGANIZATION	ORGANIZATION Ares Core Infrastructure Fund (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Fund”) is a Delaware statutory trust that was formed on May 7, 2024. The Fund is an externally managed, closed-end management investment company. The Fund has elected to be regulated (the “BDC Election”) as a business development company (“BDC”) under the 1940 Act. The Fund is party to an investment advisory and management agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) with Ares Capital Management II LLC (the Fund’s “Adviser”), a subsidiary of Ares Management Corporation (“Ares Management”), a publicly traded, leading global alternative investment manager. In addition, the Fund is party to an administration agreement with Ares Operations LLC (“Ares Operations” or the Fund’s “Administrator”), a subsidiary of Ares Management, pursuant to which the Administrator will provide administrative and other services necessary for the Fund to operate. The Fund’s investment objective is to generate attractive risk-adjusted total returns consisting primarily of current income. The Fund focuses on equity, and to a lesser extent, debt, investments in infrastructure companies and assets (“Infrastructure Assets”), with a primary focus on Infrastructure Assets believed to potentially: (i) possess a higher degree of cash flow predictability; (ii) produce returns that are derived primarily from income, with limited upside through capital gains and assets that are commonly held for longer terms (more than five years); and (iii) produce revenues and cash flows that are generally governed by either rate regulation or long-term contracts with creditworthy counterparties, such as governments, municipalities and major industrial companies, with allocations in both controlling (majority) and non-controlling (minority) equity investments, as deemed appropriate by the Adviser. The Fund’s investments may include common or preferred stock, other equity investments structured with downside protection, warrants or options, first lien senior secured loans, second lien senior secured loans, subordinated secured and unsecured loans, subordinated debt, distressed securities and convertible securities. For cash management and other purposes, the Fund may also invest in broadly syndicated loans and other more liquid credit investments, including in publicly traded debt instruments and other instruments that are not directly originated, as well as equity investments and other investment companies such as exchange-traded funds. Under normal circumstances, the Fund expects to invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in Infrastructure Assets. On August 9, 2024, Ares Management LLC, a subsidiary of Ares Management, purchased 1,000 shares of the Fund’s common shares of beneficial interest (the “Shares”) at $25.00 per Share as the Fund’s sole initial shareholder. The Fund commenced operations on August 28, 2024. Prior to the BDC Election, the Fund operated as a private fund in reliance on an exemption from the definition of “investment company” under Section 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act. As a private fund, the Fund held closings from time to time, to investors who are (i) “accredited investors” within the meaning of Regulation D under the 1933 Act, in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, and (ii) “qualified purchasers” as defined under the 1940 Act. At each such closing, each investor made a capital commitment to purchase Shares pursuant to a subscription agreement entered into with the Fund. Investors are required to fund drawdowns to purchase Shares up to the amount of their respective capital commitment (“Capital Commitment”) on an as-needed basis each time the Fund delivers a drawdown notice. As of the date of this report, no Capital Commitments remain outstanding. Following the BDC Election, the Fund commenced holding monthly closings for its continuous private offering of securities (the “Private Offering”), in connection with which the Fund issues Shares to investors for a purchase price per Share equal to the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) as of the last calendar day of the previous month. NAV is generally expected to be available within 20 business days after the effective date of the monthly closing, at which time the number of Shares issued to each investor based on the applicable NAV will be determined and such Shares, as applicable, will be credited to the investor’s account as of the effective date of the monthly closing. Each of the Fund’s closings in connection with the Private Offering will be conducted in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, including the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the 1933 Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The Fund reserves the right to conduct additional offerings of securities in the future in addition to the Private Offering. In addition, although the Fund intends to issue Shares on a monthly basis, the Fund retains the right, if determined by it in its sole discretion, to accept subscriptions and issue Shares, in amounts to be determined by the Fund, more or less frequently to one or more investors for regulatory, tax or other reasons. On April 8, 2025, the Fund received exemptive relief from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that permits the Fund to offer to sell multiple classes of the Fund’s Shares with varying sales loads and to impose asset-based and/or distribution fees and early withdrawal fees, as applicable. On May 14, 2025, in reliance on such exemptive relief, the Fund’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) adopted a Multi-Class Plan (the “Multi-Class Plan”) in accordance with Rule 18f-3 under the 1940 Act and a distribution and shareholder servicing plan (the “Distribution and Shareholder Servicing Plan”). In connection with the approval of the Multi-Class Plan, on May 14, 2025, the Board established four classes of Shares of the Fund: Class D common shares of beneficial interest (“Class D Shares”), Class N common shares of beneficial interest (“Class N Shares”), Class S common shares of beneficial interest (“Class S Shares”) and Class I common shares of beneficial interest (“Class I Shares”), and reclassified all existing Shares as Class I Shares. Other than the differences in ongoing shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees, each class of Shares has the same economics and voting rights. While an investment in any Share class of the Fund represents an investment in the same assets of the Fund, the purchase restrictions and ongoing fees and expenses for each Share class are different. No underwriting discounts or commissions have been or will be paid in connection with the sale of such Shares. Although the Fund does not charge investors an upfront sales load (an “Upfront Sales Load”) with respect to its Shares, if Class D Shares, Class N Shares or Class S Shares are purchased through certain selling agents, shareholders may be charged an Upfront Sales Load or transaction or other fees, including brokerage commissions, in such amount as such selling agents may determine, provided that such charges are subject to a 2.0% cap on NAV for Class D Shares, a 2.0% cap on NAV for Class N Shares and a 3.5% cap on NAV for Class S Shares. To the extent any such Upfront Sales Load or other fees are received by the Placement Agent, such amounts will be reallowed to the applicable selling agent. No Upfront Sales Loads may be charged on Class I Shares. The issuance of the Shares is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof, by Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder and/or Regulation S promulgated thereunder.
