Publicly traded alternative asset managers were hit hard by the volatility in August.
KKR and Carlyle Group slipped the most -- the stocks were down 20.1% and 17.1%, respectively, during the month.
Fortress Investment Group, Blackstone Group and Och-Ziff Capital Management Group also slipped by double digits (14%, 12.7% and 11.7%, respectively).
However, despite the August rout, Blackstone, Oaktree Capital Management and Ares Management were all up for the eight months through Aug. 31 (7.6%, 5.5% and 4.8%, respectively).
