Our Company
Ariel Investments is a global asset management firm founded in 1983. We are headquartered in Chicago, with offices in New York City and San Francisco.

We serve individual and institutional investors through separate accounts, mutual funds and private asset subsidiaries.

Our Product Offerings
We exist to transform the lives of everyone who entrusts us with their financial futures.

Investment management for pension plans, foundations, endowments, other institutional investors and their consultants.

No-load mutual funds for investment accounts, IRAs, 401(K) plans/rollovers, or college savings programs for individual investors.

Ariel Alternatives is an enterprise conceived for the times, built on a four-decade-old foundation. Our first private equity strategy, Project Black®, will scale sustainable businesses to serve as suppliers-of-choice to Fortune 500 companies.

Project Level is a private investment vehicle purposely built to “level the playing field”—to capitalize on a generational shift in women’s sports and raise it to its rightful place in the major leagues.
Our Performance
Great investors do not get swept up in the euphoria or depression of the moment. They think long term and look over the horizon.

Our commitment to what we do is reflected in our track record – one of the longest in the business.
