Overview

AQR Capital Management, LLC is a hedge-fund–classified investment adviser founded in 1998 that serves both individual/family clients and institutional investors. The firm operates as an LLC and combines traditional advisory roles—portfolio management for individuals, pooled vehicles, investment companies and institutions—with commodity pool operator/commodity trading adviser (CPO/CTA) activity and sponsorship or management roles in pooled investment vehicles. AQR charges a mix of percentage-of-assets and performance-linked fees and reports active engagement with ESG considerations across its investment processes. AQR’s business footprint includes manager-of-managers activity as well as direct portfolio management, and its regulatory footprint indicates it is not a newly formed or multi-state adviser. It lists brokerage-dealer and other investment-adviser affiliations consistent with running both client-facing advisory mandates and sponsor/G.P. responsibilities for private funds.
