NEW YORK, Nov 7 (Reuters) - KKR executives

signalled optimism for investing and striking deals on Friday

after reporting third-quarter earnings that beat Wall Street's

expectations.

"Things feel healthy both in performance and exits," Chief

Financial Officer Rob Lewin told analysts on a conference call.

Lewin said the environment for monetizations, which means

selling or refinancing assets in its portfolio, "is constructive

and we expect that to continue into 2026."
