Fundraising & Allocation EQT announced a $6bn target for its new U.S. industrial fund, a size that would rank it among the largest single‑sector vehicles ever raised. The ambition arrives as the Oregon State Treasury signaled a trim to its real‑estate exposure, opting for a “conservative” stance while it rebalances its portfolio amid market volatility. The contrasting moves highlight divergent investor confidence in industrial assets versus broader real‑estate holdings.

Strategic Acquisitions TPG secured a $2bn acquisition of grocery‑anchored strip‑mall specialist ECHO Realty, backed by Norway’s NBIM and Canadian pension groups PSP and La Caisse, underscoring continued appetite for retail‑linked logistics. In the health sector, Bregal Sagemount completed a growth investment in LSPedia, the Michigan‑based provider of regulatory intelligence, expanding its foothold in life‑science data services. Both deals illustrate private‑equity firms leveraging sector‑specific expertise to capture post‑pandemic growth opportunities.
