Private Equity & Infrastructure Fundraising

KKR is nearing the first close of approximately $5 billion for its third Asia-Pacific infrastructure fund, putting the private equity giant on pace to potentially surpass the $6.4 billion raised for its predecessor, which would establish a new regional fundraising benchmark. This push for capital follows IFM Investors' stated intent to increase exposure toward growth-oriented infrastructure assets, suggesting a sector-wide pivot where managers seek value-add opportunities to complement existing core holdings.
