Sculptor Capital Management: Platform Profile

Overview

Sculptor Capital Management is a global alternative investment platform focused on opportunistic investing across credit, real estate and multi-strategy portfolios.

For regulatory identity, keep the brand separate from the principal filing adviser.

• Brand: Sculptor Capital Management
• Principal registered adviser: Sculptor Capital LP
• CRD: 107913
• SEC number: 801-56729
• SEC registered investment adviser: Yes
• Brand equals single legal entity: No

May fit better for

• institutions seeking opportunistic multi-strategy exposure;
• investors evaluating corporate and structured credit;
• allocators interested in private credit and asset-based finance;
• investors considering opportunistic real estate;
• users comfortable with flexible strategy allocations;
• investors who can distinguish firm AUM, adviser RAUM and vehicle gross assets.

May fit less well for

• investors seeking one simple liquid strategy;
• users expecting a publicly traded Sculptor stock;
• investors who need one universal private-fund minimum;
• users who interpret historical allocations as fixed targets;
• investors uncomfortable with credit, arbitrage or illiquid real estate;
• users who treat awards as investment ratings.

Current public firm AUM is $39B

Sculptor's current homepage reports:

• Public AUM: $39B
• Public AUM as of: 2026-06-30
• Public AUM estimated: Yes
• Public AUM unaudited: Yes
• Track record: 32 years

The site directs readers to parent Rithm Capital's filings for additional AUM information.

Regulatory AUM is larger

Current Form-ADV-derived reference for Sculptor Capital LP:

• Regulatory AUM: $52.7B
• Regulatory AUM reference period: 2026
• Discretionary share: 100%

The $39B public firm figure and $52.7B regulatory figure should not be silently substituted for each other.

Sculptor is owned by Rithm Capital

Rithm Capital completed its acquisition of Sculptor on November 17, 2023.

The current strategy platform has three major pillars

Current first-party platform:

• Credit: Yes
• Real Estate: Yes
• Multi Strategy: Yes

Credit includes opportunistic credit, private credit and institutional credit.

Real Estate includes opportunistic equity, credit and long-term stabilized strategies.

Multi-Strategy can allocate among asset-based finance, corporate credit, merger arbitrage, fundamental equities and convertible arbitrage.

Historical allocation ranges are not target weights.

• Historical allocation range equals current target: No

Current CLO assets are a strategy-specific number

Sculptor's June 2026 CLO release states that its global suite of CLOs and CBOs totaled approximately $12.6B in assets.

A named tactical credit vehicle has a $10M minimum reference

Current April 30, 2026 Form-ADV-derived vehicle record:

• Vehicle: Sculptor Tactical Credit Master Fund I, LP
• Vehicle type: Hedge Fund
• Gross asset value: $1.9B
• Gross asset value as of: 2026-04-30
• Minimum investment: $10M
• Investment Company Act exclusion: 3(c)(7)

The $10M figure is vehicle-specific.

Q2 2026 13F value is not Sculptor AUM

Current Form 13F:

• Q2 2026 13F market value: $12.272B
• Q2 2026 13F reporting manager: Sculptor Capital LP
• Form 13F market value equals firm AUM: No
• Form 13F market value equals regulatory AUM: No

The 13F figure is smaller than both the public firm AUM and regulatory AUM because it measures a different reporting universe.

External awards are not ROIStreet ratings

Sculptor has publicized third-party hedge-fund and real-estate awards.

Assessment

Sculptor requires three asset numbers to stay in separate lanes.

The public site reports estimated, unaudited firm AUM of $39B as of June 30, 2026. The principal registered adviser has a larger regulatory AUM measure. The Q2 13F reports $12.272B of long reportable securities.

Those figures measure different things.

The same discipline applies to access: a $10M minimum on Sculptor Tactical Credit Master Fund I is a vehicle term, not the manager's universal minimum.
