Summary
Blue Owl's GP Stakes VI fund has raised approximately $11 billion to date, including co-investment capital, according to CFO Alan Kirshenbaum, who spoke on the firm's third-quarter earnings call. The figure was disclosed as the firm works toward a final close, which PEI Private Equity reports may now slip into the first quarter of 2027.

The update points to a longer fundraising timeline for one of Blue Owl's flagship strategies in the GP stakes segment, where the firm acquires minority interests in alternative asset managers. Limited partner commitments and the timing of the final close remain the key variables for allocators tracking the vehicle.
