The Apollo Approach
We strive to help retirement plan advisors bring their clients high-quality innovations designed to improve participant outcomes. With private market and guaranteed income solutions tailored to retirement, our integrated platform serves:
Our Integrated Platform
Apollo continues to provide private investment capabilities designed for public pensions, families, institutions and defined contribution plans that seek excess returns. It also manages the liability needs of retirement services companies like Athene, for which we source high-quality, long-duration investments across private and public global markets.
In 2022, Apollo merged with Athene to further align our asset management business with retirement services. For nearly 15 years, Athene has provided retirement income solutions for individuals and corporations through principal-protected investment products.
Key Platform Features
Empowering the Individual
Through wealth advisors, plan sponsors and the professionals who serve them, we seek to provide individuals with high-quality and long-duration investment products to create lasting retirement income.
The Apollo Alternatives Ethos
Apollo’s disciplined teams strive to deliver on the promise of alternative investments to earn excess return per unit of risk at every point along the risk/reward spectrum, in any market environment.
Alignment
Both Apollo and Athene are committed side-by-side with our clients as investors in Apollo-managed strategies, creating strong alignment.
“Apollo seeks to provide retirement solutions for clients across our integrated platform – from institutions to corporate defined contribution and pension plans and, increasingly, individuals. We look forward to offering even more of Apollo’s innovative alternative strategies to financial advisors and their clients going forward.”
