Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Taxes Income Taxes
The Company operates so that it will qualify to be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and not as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation. As such, it will not be subject to any U.S. federal and state income taxes. In any year, it is possible that the Company will be considered a publicly traded partnership and will not meet the qualifying income exception, which would result in the Company being treated as a publicly traded partnership and taxed as a corporation, rather than as a partnership. In such case, the members would then be treated as shareholders in a corporation, and the Company would become taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal, state and/or local income tax purposes. The Company would be required to pay income tax at corporate rates on its net taxable income.

In addition, the Company operates, in part, through subsidiaries that may be treated as corporations for U.S. and non-U.S. tax purposes and therefore may be subject to current and deferred U.S. federal, state and/or local income taxes at the subsidiary level.

The Company holds certain investments which may generate U.S. source fixed or determinable annual or periodic gains, profits and income (“FDAP income”) subject to this 30% withholding tax for the non-U.S. corporate subsidiaries. If non U.S. corporate subsidiaries of the Company receives U.S. source income that is not effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business, such income may be subject to a 30% withholding tax on its share of all U.S. source FDAP income unless certain statutory exceptions are met or a lower treaty rate applies (which may not be available or apply). The tax is expected to be withheld at the source by the U.S. payer, and taxes withheld can be used as a payment against the U.S. federal income tax liability of the non-U.S. corporate subsidiaries.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the effective tax rates were 4.2% and 3.1%, respectively. For both the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the primary items giving rise to the difference between the 0.0% federal statutory rate applicable to partnerships and the effective tax rate is due to U.S. federal, state and local taxes on income from the Company’s subsidiaries that are treated as corporations for U.S. federal, state or local purposes.

One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”)

On July 4, 2025, the legislation commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was enacted. The OBBBA amended and extended certain provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. At this time, the Company does not believe the OBBBA will have a material impact on the Company’s income taxes but continues to monitor the issuance of additional guidance from the U.S. Treasury and the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.
