Fund assets are the gross assets of the private funds in the adviser's latest Form ADV (solid bar; grey when the firm is not in the totals). Listed stocks are the US listed securities a firm reports each quarter; fund offerings count the private offering notices of funds named for the firm in two years. Each pin opens the filing behind the figure. The square beside a name opens every figure with its filing and notes.
