Fund VII continues the firm's disciplined focus on the Japanese middle market, targeting privately-held and corporate carve-out transactions across a broad range of sectors including consumer, business services, industrials, healthcare, and technology. The strategy prioritises businesses with strong domestic market positions that can benefit from operational improvements, management enhancement, and — increasingly — international expansion.

Alto Capital IV is the fourth private equity buyout fund managed by Alto Partners SGR S.p.A., a Milan-based mid-market private equity firm focused exclusively on investments in Italian family-owned businesses and corporate carve-outs. The fund held its final close on 26 April 2018 at its hard cap of EUR 210 million, representing a significant milestone in Alto Partners' history as one of Italy's most established specialist PE managers. The fund closed in line with its stated target, reflecting consistent institutional interest in Italian mid-market private equity from investors across Europe and beyond.

The fund pursues control-oriented buyouts and selected expansion transactions, with individual equity investments typically ranging from EUR 20 million to EUR 40 million.

Alto Partners SGR has deployed capital across four successive funds, developing deep relationships in the Italian entrepreneurial ecosystem and sector expertise spanning manufacturing, industrial services, consumer, and healthcare. Alto Capital IV was the direct predecessor to Alto Capital V, which closed at EUR 273 million — representing a 30% increase over Fund IV's capital and validating the performance track record generated by the firm's earlier vintages.

Altor Fund II is the second flagship private equity buyout fund of Altor Equity Partners, a Stockholm-headquartered PE manager and one of the most established mid-market buyout firms in the Nordic region. The fund closed in March 2006 at EUR 1.2 billion in capital commitments, representing a substantial step-up from Altor Fund I (EUR 650 million, 2003) and reflecting the firm's strong early performance and growing institutional investor base in Europe and North America. Altor Fund II was a landmark milestone in the firm's development as it firmly established Altor as a pan-Nordic mid-market buyout platform. Fund II pursued control-oriented buyout and growth capital investments across Sweden, Denmark, Finland, and Norway, with a generalist sector mandate concentrating on companies with strong domestic market positions that could be professionalized, internationalized, and grown through a combination of organic investment and strategic acquisitions. Typical investments targeted companies with enterprise values in the EUR 100–500 million range, employing moderate financial leverage and placing significant emphasis on operational value creation through Altor's active ownership model. The fund's investment period concluded in the 2008–2010 timeframe, with the portfolio subsequently managed through the harvesting phase. Altor Fund II was part of the firm's early track record that would underpin six successor funds and more than EUR 8 billion in cumulative capital raised as of 2024. The fund's portfolio generated significant value through iconic Nordic investments and exits, establishing Altor's reputation for delivering top-quartile returns through hands-on ownership. As of 2024, Fund II has substantially completed its lifecycle, with the remaining portfolio positions in wind-down. The Altor platform today manages Altor Fund VI (EUR 3 billion, 2024) and Altor ACT I (EUR 1.1 billion, 2024) as its current flagship vehicles.

Alumni Ventures Basecamp Fund is a seed-stage and pre-seed venture capital vehicle managed by Alumni Ventures Group, one of the most active early-stage venture capital firms in the United States by deal volume. Alumni Ventures operates a network-driven co-investing model that provides accredited individual investors with access to a highly diversified portfolio of early-stage technology companies sourced through partnerships with top-tier specialist seed investors, accelerators, and university alumni networks. The Basecamp Fund is one of several thematic sub-funds within the Alumni Ventures platform, designed to offer exposure to a broad cross-section of the US seed-stage startup ecosystem without sector concentration risk. The fund pursues a co-investing strategy, participating alongside established seed specialist investors and institutional VCs rather than leading rounds independently. Each Basecamp investment cycle targets approximately 100 seed and pre-seed deals sourced across Alumni Ventures' primary deal hubs in San Francisco, New York City, and Chicago over a 12-to-15-month deployment period. The fund reserves approximately 25% of investible capital for follow-on investments in its highest-conviction portfolio companies, preserving pro-rata rights in the most promising startups through subsequent financing rounds. The diversified co-investing approach captures broad exposure to the US early-stage venture ecosystem while managing the binary outcome risk inherent in seed-stage investing through portfolio breadth. Alumni Ventures Group has established itself as one of the most prolific seed-stage co-investors in the US, with a total community of over 500,000 members and subscribers contributing to deal flow and portfolio value creation. The Basecamp Fund closed to new investors on December 31, 2020, with capital deployed throughout 2021 across its target portfolio of approximately 100 companies.

Antares Private Credit Continuation Vehicle I is a $1.2 billion fund established by Antares Capital in partnership with Ares Management. The fund aims to provide liquidity solutions to investors in two of Antares' older private credit funds by acquiring their stakes in over 100 outstanding floating-rate, first-lien loans. This initiative addresses the growing demand for liquidity in the private credit market, where extended fund durations have limited investors' access to capital. The continuation vehicle allows limited partners to exit their investments or roll them over into the new fund, offering flexibility in managing their portfolios. Ares contributed the majority of the capital, with Antares also committing funds. The transaction was advised by Evercore, highlighting the increasing role of continuation funds in the evolving private credit landscape. By facilitating these secondary transactions, Antares and Ares are responding to the challenges faced by investors seeking liquidity in an environment where sales of portfolio companies have slowed. This strategy not only provides immediate liquidity options but also positions the firms to capitalize on the growing market for credit secondaries.

Apollo Credit Secondaries Fund II is the second dedicated credit secondaries fund managed by Apollo Global Management, one of the world's largest alternative asset managers with more than $600 billion in total assets under management. Launched in early 2024 with a target of approximately $2 billion in capital commitments, the fund represents Apollo's continued buildout of its secondary investment capabilities across private credit markets, complementing the firm's flagship equity secondaries platform managed through the Apollo S3 Sponsor and Secondary Solutions program. The fund pursues secondary market acquisitions of performing and non-performing private credit assets, including senior secured loans, mezzanine debt, direct lending portfolios, broadly syndicated leveraged loans, and structured credit instruments. Apollo's credit secondaries strategy targets portfolios being divested by banks, insurance companies, business development companies, and institutional investors seeking liquidity or balance sheet optimization. The strategy benefits from Apollo's unique position at the intersection of origination and secondary activity — the firm's origination relationships provide market intelligence on portfolio quality and credit dynamics that generalist secondary buyers lack, while Apollo's scale enables the fund to pursue large, complex transactions that may deter smaller competitors. Apollo's first credit secondaries fund demonstrated the firm's ability to access proprietary secondary credit opportunities across the private markets spectrum. The broader Apollo credit franchise manages more than $500 billion in credit assets across performing, non-performing, and hybrid strategies, giving Fund II preferential access to deal flow and the analytical infrastructure to underwrite intricate structured credit portfolios. Fund II is part of Apollo's coordinated effort to build a comprehensive secondary solutions business spanning both equity and credit secondaries, alongside the Apollo S3 Equity and Hybrid Solutions Fund I, which closed at $5.4 billion in May 2025.

Apollo S3 Private Markets Fund (ASPM) is a perpetual open-ended tender-offer fund registered under the US Investment Company Act of 1940, managed by Apollo Global Management, one of the world's largest alternative asset managers with approximately USD 730 billion in assets under management. Launched in October 2024, ASPM provides accredited US investors with diversified access to multi-asset secondary investments across private equity, private credit, and other private asset classes. The fund operates as part of Apollo's broader Sponsor and Secondaries Solutions (S3) platform, which raised approximately USD 10 billion in total capital since its inception in August 2022, making Apollo one of the fastest-growing managers in the secondaries space. ASPM's portfolio is structured to hold approximately 60% in equity secondaries, 20% in credit secondaries, 10% in cash and liquid securities, and 10% in other private investments. The strategy allocates approximately 60% of exposure to GP-led secondary transactions — including fund recapitalizations, continuation vehicles, and preferred equity — and 40% to LP-led secondary purchases. Geographically, the fund maintains a North American bias (approximately 75%), with the remainder deployed across Europe (approximately 15%) and other international markets. The evergreen, semi-liquid structure eliminates the traditional J-curve effect associated with closed-end private markets funds, with quarterly tender liquidity available to investors. The fund is accessible to accredited US investors through the registered 1940 Act vehicle format. Apollo S3 Private Markets Fund reported a return of +18.3% for the full calendar year 2025, its first complete year of operations. The fund's performance is supported by Apollo's integrated sourcing capabilities across its private equity, credit, and real assets businesses. Apollo's flagship closed-end equity secondaries drawdown vehicle, Apollo S3 Equity and Hybrid Solutions Fund I (ASEHS), closed at approximately USD 5.4 billion in commitments — exceeding its target and representing one of the largest debut secondaries funds in the firm's history — with support from pension funds, sovereign wealth funds, financial institutions, and the wealth management channel.

The Expansion portfolio has consistently delivered double-digit organic EBITDA growth across its portfolio companies. Notable recent investments from Fund VI include a majority stake in Diam, a provider of merchandising solutions for the beauty and luxury sector, and Vecos, a leading smart locker company—reflecting Ardian Expansion's focus on high-margin, business-critical services with strong European and international growth prospects.

Astrea 9 is the ninth edition of the Astrea private equity securitization program managed by Azalea Asset Management, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Seviora Holdings, which is in turn wholly owned by Temasek, Singapore's sovereign wealth fund. The Astrea series represents a pioneering financial structure that democratizes access to institutional private equity returns by securitizing a diversified portfolio of mature PE fund interests and issuing investment-grade bonds backed by the cash flows and NAV of the underlying portfolio, making private equity exposure accessible to both retail and institutional investors in Singapore. Astrea 9 is backed by a USD 1.625 billion portfolio of 40 private equity funds managed by 31 general partners, providing exposure to over 1,086 underlying portfolio companies across diverse sectors and geographies. The vehicle issued approximately USD 775 million equivalent of bonds across three classes in August 2025: Class A-1 bonds (SGD-denominated, 3.4% coupon) available to retail investors on the Singapore Exchange; Class A-2 bonds (USD-denominated, 5.7% coupon) available to retail and accredited investors; and Class B bonds (Pay-in-Kind structure, institutional and accredited investors only). This multi-tranche structure allows different investor categories to access PE exposure at different risk-return profiles while the underlying portfolio generates cash distributions from PE fund realizations. The Astrea program has a consistent performance track record: Astrea III, IV, and V have all been fully redeemed, with multiple series receiving credit rating upgrades since launch. Astrea 9's underlying PE portfolio had already generated USD 188 million in cash distributions, approximately 12% of the starting portfolio NAV, ahead of the structural payment schedule. Azalea Asset Management positions the Astrea program as an evergreen channel for retail access to institutional private equity in Singapore, with Astrea 9 representing the largest retail offering in the series to date.

Atlas Senior Loan Fund XXIV is the twenty-fourth collateralized loan obligation in the Atlas Senior Loan Fund series, managed by Crescent Capital Group LP, one of the leading alternative credit managers in the United States. Crescent Capital has been an active CLO issuer since the aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis of 2008, building a franchise of broadly syndicated CLO vehicles under the Atlas Senior Loan Fund brand. The Atlas series is one of the most consistently active CLO platforms among non-bank credit managers in the US market, with Atlas Senior Loan Fund XXIV representing the twenty-seventh CLO that Crescent has completed since 2008. Atlas Senior Loan Fund XXIV is structured as a broadly syndicated CLO and invests primarily in US senior secured term loans, with a secondary allocation to select senior secured corporate bonds. The portfolio is diversified across a broad range of corporate borrowers and US industries, with the objective of generating attractive risk-adjusted returns across the CLO's rated note tranches. As a broadly syndicated CLO, the fund benefits from protections typical of senior secured credit facilities, including first-lien priority and security interest in substantially all borrower assets.

The CLO closed with a target par amount of USD 400 million on December 10, 2024, and matures on January 20, 2038, providing investors with a thirteen-year investment horizon.

BR AVC Growth Fund is a growth-stage venture capital fund managed by Ballast Rock Group in partnership with the Acronym Venture Capital (AVC) team, providing institutional and accredited investors with access to diversified growth equity investments in later-stage private technology companies. The fund leverages Ballast Rock's integrated investment management platform with AVC's proprietary deal origination network to invest in companies at the Series B stage and beyond that have demonstrated strong revenue fundamentals and are approaching a clear path to profitability or strategic exit. Ballast Rock Group was founded to bring institutional-quality investment management to a broader investor base across multiple asset classes. The fund deploys capital into a concentrated portfolio of well-run private technology companies with significant revenue run-rates, strong domain knowledge, capital-efficient business models, and substantial cash runway. The investment thesis targets companies with a definable path to potential profitability within two to three years through organic growth or strategic merger and acquisition activity. BR AVC Growth Fund employs a Preferred Multiple on Invested Capital (MOIC) fee structure that eliminates performance fees below a preferred MOIC threshold, directly aligning manager and investor incentives at a stage where capital efficiency is paramount. The target fund size of 20 million US dollars is intentionally compact, providing concentrated exposure to a small number of high-conviction growth-stage investments in the U.S. technology sector. BR AVC Growth Fund completed its first close at 11 million US dollars in April 2023, subsequently deploying into seven portfolio company investments by mid-2024, with an eighth investment in progress.

Fundo de Capitalização e Resiliência (FdCR) is a Portuguese public investment fund established in July 2021 through Decree-Law No. 63/2021, managed by Banco Português de Fomento (BPF) on behalf of the Portuguese State. With a total committed allocation of €1.3 billion drawn from Portugal's Recovery and Resilience Plan (PRR), the FdCR is one of the largest government-backed investment vehicles in Iberia, providing multi-instrument financial support to Portuguese SMEs, mid-caps, and early-stage companies across mainland Portugal and the autonomous islands. The fund operates through three distinct investment programs. The Consolidar Program (€500 million) finances subscriptions in venture capital funds managed by CMVM-regulated financial intermediaries, enabling a fund-of-funds approach that channels capital to smaller companies through experienced VC managers. The Strategic Recapitalization Program (€400 million) provides equity and quasi-equity directly to strategically important Portuguese companies, supporting long-term economic growth and post-COVID balance sheet resilience. The Deal-by-Deal Co-Investment Program and Venture Capital Program (up to €400 million combined) invest directly in companies—prioritizing startups and early-stage businesses—to address capital access gaps and stimulate Portugal's innovation ecosystem. Eligible portfolio companies must be headquartered in Portugal and demonstrate operational viability and strategic importance to the national economy. BPF structures each investment as a temporary participation with expected 10-year program durations, reflecting the FdCR's goal of catalytic patient capital rather than permanent state ownership. The FdCR represents Portugal's most comprehensive post-COVID capitalization initiative, bridging EU recovery financing with domestic venture and private equity market development under the national PRR framework.

CVC Capital Partners VI is the sixth flagship private equity fund raised by CVC Capital Partners, one of the world's largest and most established private equity managers. The fund completed fundraising in July 2013, achieving formal commitments of €10.5 billion with a final close in late Q3 2013 — placing it among the largest European-focused buyout funds of its vintage. Ninety percent of the fund's capital was committed by investors who had supported prior CVC funds, reflecting exceptional LP retention across fund cycles and deep institutional trust in CVC's strategy. CVC Capital Partners VI applies the firm's flagship large-cap and mega-cap buyout strategy to companies headquartered or primarily operating across Europe and North America. CVC targets market-leading businesses with durable earnings streams, strong competitive positioning, and platform-building potential. Typical value creation levers include operational performance improvement, bolt-on M&A, international expansion, and carve-outs from corporate parent structures. The fund's sector approach is intentionally multi-sector, covering services, healthcare, technology, media, and consumer — mirroring CVC's investment practice since the firm's founding in 1981. Investments are primarily control-oriented transactions, consistent with CVC's long-standing preference for governance as a value-creation mechanism. Fund VI closed into a recovering European private equity market following the 2010–2012 sovereign debt cycle. Successor vehicles CVC Capital Partners VII and VIII expanded significantly in size, with Fund VIII closing at €26 billion in 2020 and the firm's most recent fund reaching $29 billion — the largest buyout fund ever raised at the time. CVC Capital Partners VI is in an advanced divesting phase as portfolio holdings approach maturity and the fund's lifecycle nears completion. The fund is domiciled in Luxembourg, consistent with CVC's European fund structuring practice.

CapMan Buyout X Fund is the tenth fund in CapMan's Nordic buyout series, established in November 2012 with an initial first close of €152 million and a final size of €244 million. CapMan Plc, the fund's manager, is a publicly listed Finnish private equity firm founded in 1989 — one of the longest-established private equity managers in the Nordic region, listed on the Helsinki Stock Exchange since 2001. The fund was raised primarily from institutional investors and family offices based in the Nordic countries, continuing the deep domestic LP concentration that has characterized the CapMan Buyout series for over three decades. The fund invests in majority and significant minority equity positions in mid-size unlisted Nordic companies — typically businesses with ambitious growth trajectories and scalable operating models. CapMan's value creation approach is hands-on and operationally driven, involving active board representation, buy-and-build acquisition programs, and organic growth initiatives. CapMan Buyout X operates a multi-sector mandate reflecting the diversified nature of the Nordic mid-market, with historical portfolio concentration in business services, education, hospitality, and consumer-facing companies. The fund is domiciled as two parallel structures: a Guernsey limited partnership (CapMan Buyout X Fund A L.P.) and a Finnish limited partnership (CapMan Buyout X Fund B Ky), consistent with CapMan's practice of accommodating both offshore and domestic Nordic investors. CapMan Buyout X Fund reached full deployment and entered its value creation and exit phase after several years of active investment. Notable exits include Kämp Collection Hotels (sold to Nordic Choice Hospitality Group), YrkesAkademin (a leading Swedish vocational education provider, exited 2024), Renoa (exited 2024), and Forenom (a corporate temporary housing operator, exited to a Bravedo-led consortium in January 2026) — the final exit of the fund after approximately 13 years from first close. The fund is currently in a Divesting phase as the remaining portfolio is resolved.

Crescent Credit Solutions VII CV (CCS VII CV) is a $3.2 billion private credit continuation vehicle managed by Crescent Capital Group, a Los Angeles-based global credit investment manager with approximately $50 billion in AUM as of December 31, 2025. The vehicle closed in January 2026 and was led by Pantheon Ventures as the primary buyer, supported by a broader group of institutional secondary market investors. CCS VII CV is structured to acquire the portfolio of Crescent Mezzanine Partners VII, a 2016-vintage fund with more than $4.6 billion in committed capital, enabling existing LPs to receive liquidity while allowing Crescent to continue managing a mature portfolio of loans to sponsor-backed companies. The transaction is recognized as the largest credit continuation vehicle in private credit secondaries history at the time of close. The vehicle's underlying strategy is private credit, specifically mezzanine and credit solutions lending to sponsor-backed, large and upper-middle-market companies across North America. Crescent Mezzanine Partners VII's original mandate involved sub-investment grade credit investments including first and second lien loans, mezzanine debt, and equity co-investments in leveraged buyout transactions. CCS VII CV allows Crescent to extend its management of these assets beyond the predecessor fund's term, maintaining continuity for portfolio companies while providing a liquidity mechanism for investors in the mature 2016-vintage vehicle. Crescent Capital Group was founded in 1991 as the alternative credit arm of The TCW Group and became independent in 2011. The firm manages capital across leveraged loans, high yield bonds, direct lending, distressed debt, and mezzanine strategies. Jason Breaux, head of private credit at Crescent, and Rakesh Jain, global head of private credit secondaries at Pantheon, led the transaction. Kirkland & Ellis served as legal counsel to Crescent. The transaction represents a broader trend toward credit continuation vehicles as an efficient tool for GP-led liquidity events in the private credit market.

Crescent Capital Group LP has successfully closed its third European Specialty Lending Fund, CESL III, with approximately €3 billion in investable capital, surpassing its initial €2 billion target. This fundraise marks a significant increase from its predecessor, CESL II, which closed at €1.8 billion in April 2020. The fund attracted a diverse mix of international institutional investors, including global pension funds, insurance companies, financial institutions, foundations, and endowments. CESL III continues Crescent's strategy of investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of private secured debt securities issued by European companies, focusing on directly-originated transactions. The fund has both levered and unlevered sleeves and has already committed approximately €800 million across 16 transactions. Crescent's European Specialty Lending strategy began in 2014 and provides financing to private equity-backed European middle-market companies. The fund targets companies with EBITDA typically ranging from €5 million to €25 million, offering flexible loan solutions to support leveraged buyouts, acquisition financing, refinancings, and recapitalizations across Western Europe. To date, Crescent has committed nearly €4 billion across more than 70 investments in Europe.

Crescent Mezzanine Partners VII is a mezzanine debt fund managed by Crescent Capital Group LP, a leading global alternative credit investment manager headquartered in Los Angeles with European operations in London.

Crescent Capital Group was founded in 1991 and manages approximately $46 billion in assets as of December 2024, with a 25+ year track record in below-investment-grade credit across leveraged loans, high-yield bonds, mezzanine debt, and distressed securities. Crescent Mezzanine Partners VII provides mezzanine and subordinated debt capital to support leveraged buyouts, acquisitions, recapitalizations, and later-stage growth financings for companies typically controlled by private equity sponsors with enterprise values exceeding $300 million.

Deal structures involve long-term subordinated financing with equity co-investment components that align returns with transaction sponsors. Limited partners represent a diverse global investor base spanning more than 20 countries, including sovereign wealth funds, pension funds, insurance companies, financial institutions, foundations, and endowments.

In January 2026, Crescent Capital Group and Pantheon announced the close of Crescent Credit Solutions VII CV, a $3.2 billion private credit continuation vehicle — the largest credit continuation vehicle transaction in the private credit secondaries market — established to acquire a diversified performing portfolio from this fund, validating its strong realized and unrealized performance.

The DECALIA Private Credit Strategies II fund is designed to capitalise on the disintermediation of bank lending across Europe, deploying capital into specialised private debt and credit‑like instruments in less crowded segments. It closed at €311 million, significantly above its original €250 million target and with over 80% of deployment achieved by final close, demonstrating strong market appetite. The investment strategy blends direct lending, asset‑backed claims, co‑investments, secondary purchases and partnership structures to access differentiated risk‑return opportunities in niches where traditional lenders are retreating. With rapid deployment and a strict underwriting framework, the fund targets double‑digit net returns via selective origination and active portfolio management. Geographically the fund focuses on Europe, leveraging structural shifts in the credit markets and thematic drivers such as the search for yield and market inefficiencies. The manager emphasises talent selection, capital preservation and rigorous risk controls as hallmarks of the strategy. The vehicle is intended for institutional or professional investors comfortable with the illiquidity inherent in private credit. The speed of deployment and oversubscription reflect the strength of the manager’s sourcing and structuring capabilities in a dynamic environment.

The investor base spans global institutional allocators including insurance companies, asset managers, and financial institutions — both repeat investors from prior Dawson Logan issuances and new participants — attracted by the CFO structure's combination of diversification, defined risk-return characteristics, and access to Dawson's proprietary deal flow in GP-led transactions and portfolio finance across private equity, credit, real estate, and infrastructure.

EIF Secondaries Fund is a secondary private equity investment program managed by the European Investment Fund (EIF), the European Union's specialist venture capital and private equity fund-of-funds investor, headquartered in Luxembourg. The program represents the EIF's dedicated commitment to developing and professionalizing the European secondaries market, providing liquidity solutions to limited partners and general partners across the private equity spectrum through GP-led, LP-led, and hybrid transactions in the European buyout, growth equity, and venture capital small-cap segments. The EIF launched its secondaries investment activities in 2016, initially deploying capital from its own balance sheet to build a proof-of-concept track record before inviting outside institutional investors. The 2016–2019 program completed 14 transactions, with individual transaction sizes typically ranging from €5 million to €20 million, focused on portfolios of small-cap buyout, growth, and hybrid European private equity funds. The program generated a gross TVPI of 1.6x as of December 31, 2022, with an IRR of approximately 17%, reflecting the compressed holding periods characteristic of secondaries investing. The EIF Secondaries Fund aligns with the broader EIF mandate to support the development of European private capital markets and increase liquidity for investors in the asset class. By participating in secondary transactions, the EIF acts as a market-maker and anchor investor in a segment of the European private equity market that benefits from institutional validation. The EIF is a subsidiary of the European Investment Bank (EIB) Group, with EIB, the European Commission, and various European financial institutions as shareholders, providing a supranational backing that underpins its investment mandate.

Endeit Fund III is the third growth-equity fund raised by Endeit Capital, the Amsterdam and Hamburg-headquartered late-stage venture and growth capital firm active across seven European countries. Launched in April 2021, the fund targets high-growth Series B-equivalent technology scaleups across the Netherlands, Germany, the Nordic markets, and other Western European countries, providing equity capital in the €7–€15 million per ticket range to founders seeking their first institutional growth-stage commitment. The fund's investment thesis centres on three pillars: deep expertise in digital transformation businesses, a high-conviction portfolio with fewer and more intensively supported positions than typical early-stage funds, and a co-investor network of more than 75 entrepreneur limited partners who bring domain knowledge, customer access, and follow-on capital. Endeit Capital's predecessor vehicles had backed companies including Otrium, Sendcloud, and Springbok Agency, and the Fund III portfolio extends that B-stage, operator-network playbook across media-tech, e-commerce infrastructure, and marketplace businesses. Endeit Fund III recorded its first close at €250 million in April 2021, then re-opened the fundraise to accommodate institutional demand, ultimately reaching a final close of €303 million in May 2022—a 21% upsizing driven by an anchor commitment from Germany's KfW Capital under the ERP/Zukunftsfonds-Wachstumsfazilität programme. The fund's structure as Endeit Fund III Coöperatief U.A. reflects Endeit's Dutch cooperative legal model, providing flow-through tax treatment favourable to Dutch and German investors and consistent with the firm's Benelux-Germany founding market.

The fund targets pre-seed and seed-stage technology startups founded or led by Spanish entrepreneurs, with particular focus on founders operating outside the major hubs of Madrid and Barcelona, supporting emerging innovation ecosystems across Spain and the broader Mediterranean region. The FCRE S.A. legal structure is a Spanish closed-end venture capital vehicle authorized under European Alternative Investment Fund Manager regulations, providing institutional governance standards aligned with AIFMD requirements. Eoniq Mediterranean Seed Fund I pursues a generalist technology venture strategy at the earliest stages of company formation, investing in startups that demonstrate initial product-market fit through a minimum viable product and early traction metrics. The fund takes an active value-add approach, providing portfolio companies with access to the Eoniq network of experienced operators, domain advisors, and follow-on institutional investors to support internationalization and growth beyond the Iberian market. With approximately 50 portfolio companies invested from Fund I, the portfolio reflects a diversified early-stage approach spanning consumer technology, enterprise software, digital health, and marketplace business models. The Eoniq investment team brings a verifiable pre-fund track record of over 60 individual angel and pre-institutional investments prior to raising Fund I, with reported returns of 6.36x and an IRR exceeding 35%.

Farragut SBIC Fund III, LP is the third Small Business Investment Company (SBIC) fund managed by Farragut Capital Partners, a privately held investment firm headquartered in Chevy Chase, Maryland. The fund closed at $263 million in April 2025, making it the firm's largest SBIC vehicle to date and surpassing its fundraising target with an above-target final close. Farragut Capital Partners was established in 2011 as the continuation of a long tradition of investing subordinated debt and private equity capital in leading US lower middle market businesses, with its founders building expertise across multiple investment cycles. Farragut SBIC Fund III pursues a time-tested strategy of providing subordinated debt (mezzanine capital) and private equity capital to profitable, growing US-based lower middle market companies, typically alongside strong ownership groups including private equity sponsors and independent sponsors. The fund targets businesses with revenues of $10 million or more, deploying investments of $4–30 million per transaction across a portfolio of approximately 25–35 companies. The SBIC license provides the fund with leveraged capital from the US Small Business Administration (SBA), enhancing returns by supplementing private LP capital with long-term government-backed senior debt at favorable rates — a structural advantage unique to SBA-licensed investment vehicles that allows managers to earn enhanced returns without additional LP capital at risk. Farragut SBIC Fund III attracted a diverse LP base including US commercial banks (community, regional, and national), family offices, high-net-worth individuals, and institutional asset managers, reflecting the broad appeal of SBIC-licensed mezzanine vehicles. The above-target final close demonstrates strong investor confidence in Farragut's origination capabilities and portfolio management track record from prior SBIC funds. The fund continues a consistent investment playbook applied successfully in earlier vintages, targeting the same segment of the US lower middle market where relationship-driven origination and flexible capital structures generate differentiated returns versus broadly syndicated credit alternatives.

Co-managed by investment veterans Harley Lank, Nate Van Duzer, and Bill Wall, the fund leverages Fidelity’s deep special situations platform and extensive research and trading capabilities to identify and execute on high-potential credit opportunities.

Fitz Gate Ventures Fund III is the third venture capital fund of Houston-based Fitz Gate Ventures, co-founded by Jim Cohen and Mark Poag, who bring combined backgrounds from investment banking, corporate law, private equity, and software entrepreneurship. The fund completed its close in December 2025, with Rice University's Office of Innovation serving as anchor limited partner — deepening the firm's institutional relationship with one of its home universities and validating its university technology transfer thesis. Building on the deep-tech investment strategy refined across Funds I and II, Fund III concentrates on seed-stage hard tech and deep tech companies commercialising intellectual property from elite US research universities, including Princeton, Yale, UCLA, UC Berkeley, Virginia Tech, Baylor College of Medicine, and Vanderbilt University. The fund targets initial check sizes of $500,000 to $1 million with reserves for follow-on participation. Priority sectors include semiconductors and photonics, metamaterials, quantum computing, and other university-derived technologies with high barriers to replication. Fitz Gate deploys capital as lead investor, co-investor, or independent backer depending on deal structure. Fitz Gate's prior funds each produced one unicorn exit: Fund I's seed investment in Quantum Circuits, Inc. led to a $550 million acquisition by D-Wave Systems (QBTS). Fund II's seed investment in Celestial AI — a photonic fabric startup — resulted in a sale to Marvell Technology (MRVL) for up to $5.5 billion, announced in December 2025. These back-to-back unicorn exits underpin Fund III's thesis that the convergence of university IP and patient seed capital can produce outsized returns from deep science.

The Franklin Lexington Private Markets Fund (FLEX) is a continuously offered, closed-end tender offer fund co-advised by Franklin Templeton and Lexington Partners, one of the world's largest dedicated secondary private equity investment firms with over $83 billion in assets under management. Launched in 2025 with approximately $904.5 million in initial assets under management, FLEX represents the first registered tender offer fund focused exclusively on private equity secondary investments available to the U.S. wealth management channel. Registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, FLEX is structured to bring institutional-grade secondary private equity access to individual investors and wealth advisors who have historically been excluded from this asset class. FLEX pursues a diversified portfolio of secondary private equity fund interests and co-investments in new private equity transactions, acquiring interests across buyout, growth equity, venture capital, and other private equity portfolio strategies. The fund benefits from Lexington Partners' deep expertise in secondary transactions — the firm has been one of the most active global secondary buyers for over three decades — and from Franklin Templeton's extensive wealth distribution infrastructure and client relationships. FLEX is structured with quarterly liquidity, monthly subscriptions, and 1099 tax reporting to provide more accessible terms than traditional institutional drawdown funds, while maintaining exposure to the diversification and return characteristics of private equity secondaries. Target geographies span North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Latin America. Lexington Partners' broader platform underpins FLEX's strategy. Its flagship institutional drawdown funds represent $72.4 billion in assets, and Lexington Co-Investment Partners VI ($4.6 billion, closed 2024) illustrates the firm's co-investment capabilities. FLEX was launched with anchor support from two leading U.S.-based wealth management firms, contributing to the $904.5 million initial AUM base. Franklin Templeton's acquisition of Lexington Partners in 2022 positioned the combined firm to create this crossover vehicle, expanding Lexington's institutional secondaries expertise into Franklin Templeton's extensive wealth channel distribution network serving advisors and individual investors.

Rather than investing directly in portfolio companies, Elevate takes minority economic interests in the management companies of newly established or early-stage PE firms, capturing management fee and carried interest economics as emerging managers build track records and grow their assets under management. The fund provides portfolio GP firms with critical capital, strategic guidance, and operational infrastructure support to accelerate their institutional development. GCM Grosvenor contributes approximately $20 billion in assets managed with small and emerging managers across its broader platform, giving Elevate privileged access to deep institutional knowledge and a proprietary pipeline of emerging manager opportunities. The fund's first two investments were made in Excolere Equity Partners, a firm focused on education and human capital sector private equity, and Invidia Capital Management, which specializes in healthcare sector buyouts. Two to three additional GP seeding transactions were expected in 2025, with the fund pursuing a diversified portfolio of emerging lower and middle market PE managers spanning multiple industry verticals. The Elevate Fund represents a structural continuation of GCM Grosvenor's long-standing commitment to emerging manager investing, building on a track record that established the firm as one of the largest allocators to small and emerging managers in the institutional alternatives market.

Structured to accept commitments from international institutional investors outside Japan, Innovation Alpha L.P. forms the offshore counterpart to Integral 3 Limited Partnership, together reaching a combined hard cap of ¥73 billion (approximately $671 million) at final closing on 20 April 2017.

Exit activity continued into 2026, with partial exits generating approximately ¥6.3 billion in additional carried interest expected in fiscal 2026. The fund's success validated Integral's strategy of internationalizing its LP base, laying the foundation for the substantially larger Innovation Alpha V L.P.—the USD tranche of the $1.2 billion Fund V Series closed in 2024—in which international investor participation reached approximately 50% of total commitments.

Reaching final close at the hard cap on April 1, 2026, with commitments more than 2x oversubscribed and the fund substantially allocated within four months of launch, the Series IV fundraise positions NSSK as one of the largest independent private equity franchises in Japan by assets under management. Thrive Alternatives served as exclusive placement agent for the raise, facilitating distribution to a global and domestic investor base. NSSK pursues control-oriented buyout investments across the Japanese mid-market, specialising in four transaction types: business succession from retiring founders and family owners; carve-outs from large Japanese conglomerates undertaking portfolio rationalisation; management buyouts in which NSSK partners with incumbent management teams; and special situations involving operationally or financially complex businesses. The firm targets market-leading niche businesses with strong cash flow, resilient competitive positions, and the ability to sustain performance across economic cycles. NSSK's value creation model focuses on corporate governance reform, professionalising management teams, accelerating organic and inorganic growth, and leveraging Japan's evolving regulatory environment around cross-shareholding unwinding and conglomerate restructuring. The Series IV fundraise drew a broad global and Japanese institutional investor base spanning sovereign wealth funds, public and private pension funds, financial institutions, endowments, foundations, family offices, and asset managers. The 2x oversubscription and sub-four-month close pace represent the strongest fundraising outcome in NSSK's history, reflecting consistent investment performance across the firm's first three series funds and growing global investor conviction in the Japanese mid-market as a distinct and differentiated private equity opportunity set.

Nordic Secondary Fund (NSF) is an independent secondaries investment platform managed by N2F Management ApS, headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark. Founded in 2018 as the first fund series in the Nordic region dedicated exclusively to secondary transactions, NSF operates as a series of closed-end vehicles — Nordic Secondary Fund I and Nordic Secondary Fund II — targeting non-listed growth companies across Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Iceland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. The platform has deployed more than €93 million into secondary positions across a portfolio of over 40 current and exited holdings, establishing NSF as the definitive Nordic secondaries specialist. NSF acquires minority secondary stakes in companies that have already completed a Series A capital raise from venture capital or corporate venture investors, providing liquidity to existing shareholders at a discount to the latest funding round. The investment thesis targets businesses with proven, scalable models, documented market traction, and clear growth paths, seeking 2–5x return upside with exits projected within a five-year horizon. Target sectors span software and digital platforms, deep technology, hardware, consumer, and sustainability-focused businesses across the broader New Nordic ecosystem. Approximately 37% of the portfolio by deployment has been invested in Baltic-founded companies, reflecting conviction in the dynamism of the Estonian, Latvian, and Lithuanian tech scenes alongside the traditional Scandinavian venture markets. The management team of Nordic Secondary Fund brings more than 50 combined years of experience as founders, early-stage venture investors, professional fund managers, and operational executives. Portfolio holdings include Wingcopter (autonomous logistics drone systems for last-mile delivery), Swappie (Europe's leading certified refurbished smartphone platform), and Remora Robotics (autonomous robotic systems for industrial and facility cleaning). The secondaries strategy provides limited partners with exposure to growth-stage risk-return profiles at entry valuations discounted to primary rounds — a differentiated, liquidity-driven approach to Nordic technology investing that complements traditional VC allocations in investor portfolios.

About Northern Powerhouse Investment Fund IINorthern Powerhouse Investment Fund II (NPIF II) is a £660 million government-backed investment programme managed by British Business Bank, dedicated to improving access to debt and equity finance for smaller businesses across the North of England. Launched in late 2024 as the successor to the original Northern Powerhouse Investment Fund, NPIF II forms part of the British Business Bank's Nations and Regions Investment Funds initiative—a £1.6 billion commitment to stimulate sustainable economic growth outside London and the South East.

British Business Bank brings over a decade of experience operating regional investment programmes across the UK, from the Midlands Engine Investment Fund to the South West Investment Fund, and draws on this expertise to ensure NPIF II delivers tangible economic impact for underserved Northern markets. The fund represents one of the most significant public-private investment initiatives in the North of England's recent economic history.

Ocean Avenue Fund IV, L.P. is the fourth flagship private equity fund raised by Ocean Avenue Capital Partners, a Los Angeles–based lower middle market and special situations investor founded in 2011. The fund completed its final close in August 2020 at its hard cap of $350 million, exceeding its initial $300 million target.

This momentum carried through to the subsequent fundraise: Ocean Avenue Capital Partners, L.P. closed Fund V oversubscribed at its $600 million hard cap in February 2024, nearly doubling the size of its predecessor and reflecting the growing institutional appetite for lower middle market and special situation strategies.
