The short version

Largest by amount reported sold: Ares Private Credit Solutions II, L.P. (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2020–2021; $4.41B reported sold to 97 investors), Ares Private Credit Solutions, L.P. (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2017–2018; $3.31B reported sold to 99 investors), Ares Sports, Media & Entertainment Finance, L.P.

(Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands (as filed: E9) — pooled investment fund — 2018; $620.2M reported sold to 15 investors) and 16 more (all listed below).

What this means That is a lot of deals — 21 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 9 years. Across those companies the filings report $14.86B sold in total.

Listed alongside Mark Affolter (30 shared filings), Jim Miller (26 shared filings), Matthew Jill (26 shared filings), Michael Arougheti (26 shared filings), Kipp deVeer (16 shared filings) and 40 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Kort. Each name links to their own page.

The issuers belong to 2 sponsor groups: Ares (40 issuers, $16.08B reported sold, 2010–2026) and Ares Senior Direct (2 issuers, $870.2M reported sold, 2018–2019).

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — none found.

What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (3 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.

We compared 30 public filings for Kort Schnabel and found 12 differences, 4 worth asking the sponsor about: 7 paid sellers are listed without a CRD number; Kort Schnabel is no longer listed on the Apr 15, 2024 amendment; and more below.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

CA on 26 filings (Feb 17, 2017 to Sep 10, 2026); NY on 4 filings (Nov 16, 2020 to Feb 18, 2022).

What this means The address on a Form D is usually the company's, not the person's home, so this often just reflects different companies. It can also mean a move. Nothing wrong by itself.

What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.

How this is counted

Counts come from Form D Items 12–15 on the filings in our index (latest filing per offering; one offering = one SEC file number; an amendment updates its offering rather than adding one). "To insiders" = gross proceeds used for payments to executive officers, directors or promoters. "—" = not reported on that filing. Amounts marked (est.) were reported as estimates. "Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.

Counted across every filing this person is listed on (latest filing per offering, per issuer).

Deals 21

Every issuer that named Kort Schnabel on a Form D, newest first. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment.
