Private Equity & Infrastructure Funding

ECP VI nearing close after securing $4.8bn midway through its fundraising cycle, positioning the sixth flagship fund to hit its $5bn target within 18 months of launch, signaling strong capital deployment appetite in the sector. This fundraising momentum contrasts with the regulatory hurdles facing green energy projects, even as Australia moves to slash renewable energy approval timelines to just 50 business days, addressing a key bottleneck for infrastructure deployment. Further illustrating sector activity, THL acquires Celerion from H.I.G. Capital for $1.8 billion, marking a significant transaction in the healthcare and life sciences private equity space.
