Ares Management Corporation (NYSE:ARES) is looking for acquisitions. Michael Arougheti, Chief Executive Officer said, "As it relates to potential new acquisitions, the strategic transactions announced in 2021 filled specific product gaps in areas that we identified as high-growth opportunities. Our product breadth and scaled operations provide us a significant platform from which to build businesses organically, and as a result, the bar for new M&A is higher.

We expect to be active in the organic build-out of products across each of our business lines, including optimizing the synergy opportunities in our recent acquisitions that will hopefully further enhance our growth".
