NEW YORK, Feb 5 (Reuters) - Investment firm KKR KKR.N holds around 7% of its portfolio in software assets, its co-CEO said on Thursday, responding to market volatility prompted by fears of disruption and potential losses in the sector linked to artificial intelligence.
"We took an inventory of our portfolio the last two years" and identified whether AI was "an opportunity, or a threat, or a question mark", Nuttall told analysts on a conference call.
"We have $118 billion of dry powder, it is multiples of any exposure we have that we have any AI-related anxiety about. This type of dislocation creates really strong return opportunities for us. We had a firm call this morning and it was part of what we talked about."
