Blue Owl Hit With Securities Class Action Tied to BDC Redemption Pressures

Plaintiffs allege the company concealed liquidity strain linked to redemptions at sponsored business development companies.

Overview

  • A federal securities class action has been filed for investors who purchased Blue Owl shares between February 6 and November 16, 2025.
  • Complaints claim the company failed to disclose pressure on its asset base from BDC redemptions, resulting liquidity issues, and likely limits on certain redemptions.
  • Investor notices from Glancy Prongay & Murray, Wolf Haldenstein, and the Rosen Law Firm urge motions for lead-plaintiff status by February 2, 2026.
  • Filings link share declines to late-2025 events including an October 30 Q3 miss, a proposed OBDC–OBDC II merger and tender-offer disclosure on November 5–6, an FT report on November 16–17, and the merger’s termination on November 19.
  • No class has been certified, and Kuehn Law says it is investigating potential fiduciary-duty breaches by Blue Owl officers and directors.
