Overview
Apollo Global Management is one of the world's largest alternative asset managers, with roughly $840 billion in assets across credit, private equity and real assets, and its scale is the headline. Real estate is a comparatively modest sleeve of the platform, but Apollo reaches 1031 investors through Apollo Real Estate Exchange (AREX), its DST vehicle, while the broader franchise is powered by a credit-led origination engine and the permanent capital of its Athene insurance balance sheet. For exchangers, the draw is institutional underwriting and sponsor durability; the caveat is that DSTs are peripheral to a business whose center of gravity is credit.
Key strategies & advantages
- Operates one of the world's largest alternative platforms at roughly $840 billion, dwarfing dedicated DST sponsors.
- Reaches 1031 investors through Apollo Real Estate Exchange (AREX), layered on a ~$46 billion real assets business.
- Runs a credit-led origination engine that sources opportunities equity-only sponsors never see.
- Anchors its capital base in the Athene insurance balance sheet, supplying permanent, long-duration capital.
- Carries a distressed/opportunistic heritage positioning it to exploit dislocation.
