  • “People know us surprisingly. Everyone seems to know Oaktree and has a high regard for us. I give Howard a lot of credit because of who he is and what he's done in terms of communicating, writing, speaking, etcetera, etcetera. But it still surprises me to this day. I could travel to almost any country and the people who are reasonably financially literate know us and like us. And that's a great thing. It's gotta be a great asset.”
