 The Carlyle Group

The Carlyle Group is a massive private equity firm with over $200 billion in assets under management. The firm has been criticized for its ties to the Saudi Arabian government and for its involvement in the Iraq War. https://fastercapital.com/content/Not-all-private-equity-firms-are-evil--but-these-fiveare-especially-troublesome.html 

This Is a Horror Story: How Private Equity Vampires Are Killing Everything

Not even the ill and injured are safe from this particular strain of supernatural avarice. The Carlyle Group, a massive private equity firm, came under fire in 2018 when conditions at ManorCare, a nursing home chain that it had purchased in 2007 and driven into bankruptcy, were revealed to have been so understaffed that residents were frequently left to wallow in their own filth. Some reported rooms overrun with roaches and ants, while others sustained grievous injuries due to neglect.
