Partners Group has raised more than $5.5bn (€4.8bn) for its infrastructure secondaries strategy, including $1.7bn for its core closed-ended fund alongside bespoke mandates and co-investment funds.
Partners Group said the programme, which attracted over 70% of its capital from new clients across Europe, the Americas, the Middle East and Asia Pacific, is already more than 25% committed across 20 seed investments.
Recent additions to the programme’s seed portfolio include a lead investment in a continuation vehicle for a global commercial aviation leasing portfolio comprising 69 assets, as well as co-leading a continuation vehicle for a UK rolling stock leasing platform.
Dmitriy Antropov, head of infrastructure partnership investments, Partners Group, said: “We have one of the longest track records in the infrastructure secondaries market. Through our differentiated direct-style underwriting approach, we have been able to deliver very attractive returns across cycles.
“This approach positions us as a solutions provider as the infrastructure secondaries market becomes an increasingly important tool in providing liquidity to LPs and GPs alike. We are very grateful for the trust our clients place in us.”
Partners Group previously provided access to infrastructure secondaries through bespoke mandates and its main global infrastructure fund series, which has now reached its fifth vintage.
Also last week, Partners Group secured over $15bn for its latest direct infrastructure strategy, which targets mid-market assets across the next-generation energy, utility and infrastructure sectors.
