Hi, I'd like to suggest a few factual updates to this article, all of which are supported by either Blackstone's 2020 annual report or by the Blackstone website (per WP:ABOUTSELF). Pinging Sdrqaz and Fences and windows who were recently active here, in case either of you has a few minutes to spare to implement this.
- Lead section: In the second sentence of the second paragaph, update to: As of 2020[update], the company's total assets under management were approximately US$619 billion.[1]
- Infobox:
- Key people: Remove Byron Wien, as he is the vice chairman of a specific division at Blackstone (Private Wealth Solutions), not of the company as a whole. (Source)
- Revenue: Update to:
US$6.102 billion (2020)[1]
- Operating income: Remove this parameter, it is not a metric we use/report. (And it doesn't make much sense to continue displaying the number from the old 2017 annual report.)
- Net income: Update to:
US$2.262 billion (2020)[1]
- AUM: Update to:
US$619 billion (2020)[1]. Also, remove the number for "real estate AUM" as this is just one component of the total AUM - reflecting just one of Blackstone's multiple business segments.
- Total assets: Update to:
US$26,269 billion (Q4 2020)[1]
- Subsidiaries: The companies listed here are not subsidiaries - they are a small selection of the many hundreds of companies in which Blackstone has invested over the years. In light of this, please remove the entire Subsidiaries parameter.
- Leadership section: The source for the following updates is the "Our People" page on the Blackstone website:
- Remove J. Tomilson Hill from both the Executives and Board of directors subsections, as he left Blackstone in 2018 and is no longer a board member.
- Remove Bennett J. Goodman from the Board of directors subsection, as he is no longer a board member.
- Add the following two names to the Board of directors subsection:
- Reginald ("Reg") J. Brown: independent director
- Joseph Baratta: member of the executive committee
