A group led by Athene Annuity and Apollo-affiliated entities reports beneficial ownership of 760,000 Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Shares of Ares Dynamic Credit Allocation Fund, Inc. (ARDC), representing 19% of the class. The holdings consist of 360,000 Series A, 160,000 Series B and 240,000 Series C preferred shares, with shared voting and dispositive power and no sole voting or dispositive power reported.
The 19% figure is calculated using the issuer's outstanding totals as of April 1, 2025 (800,000 Series A; 1,200,000 Series B; 2,000,000 Series C). The filing is a Schedule 13G/A disclosure by multiple related Apollo and Athene entities that clarifies ownership and the relationships among reporting persons.

Insights
TL;DR Reporting persons disclose a 19% beneficial stake across three series of ARDC preferred shares, held with shared voting and dispositive power.
The filing is a standard Schedule 13G/A disclosure identifying Athene and affiliated Apollo entities as holders of 760,000 Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Shares (360k A, 160k B, 240k C). Ownership is disclosed as shared voting and dispositive power with no sole power, and percentages are based on issuer-reported outstanding shares as of April 1, 2025. This clarifies the ownership chain and the adviser/GP structure but does not assert control or a change in control intent.
TL;DR Multiple related entities formally report aggregated 19% ownership of ARDC preferred shares and describe the corporate ownership chain.
The filing details the interconnected structure: AAIA holds the shares; AISG is AAIA's investment adviser; AISG GP, Apollo Life, Apollo Life GP, Capital Management and Management Holdings are successive ownership/management layers. The statement includes customary disclaimers that most affiliated entities disclaim beneficial ownership, while confirming shared voting/dispositive power. The disclosure improves transparency about who exercises influence over the preferred share stake.
