Infrastructure & Energy Transition

Infrastructure managers are navigating a $1.2tn fundraising comeback, though the distribution of gains remains concentrated among the largest firms. Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners is positioning itself to capture this liquidity, targeting €16bn for its latest renewables flagship following the successful €12bn close of its predecessor in March 2025. This momentum extends to specialized managers, as Reinova targets a $500M first close for its debut energy transition fund, aiming to secure nearly two-thirds of its total goal within a 10-month window. Large-scale capital deployment is also shifting toward the AI-driven infrastructure boom, with major GPs outlining strategies for a $7tn capital expenditure cycle, while AllianzGI is pivoting away from a sole reliance on flagship vehicles, demanding more tailored, specialized strategies from its general partners.

Private Equity & Dealmaking

Private equity firms are increasingly utilizing collaborative structures to mitigate risk in emerging markets. Altérra joined I Squared in a $600M continuation vehicle for a Peruvian power business, reflecting a broader trend where anchor investors are opting for partnerships to gain exposure to less established strategies. In the healthcare sector, Ampersand Capital Partners closed a new oversubscribed fund at its $1.5bn hard cap, signaling continued appetite for specialized middle-market buyouts despite broader economic volatility.

Real Estate Credit

The private real estate credit market is reaching a critical inflection point as traditional lenders retreat from the sector. The launch of the PERE Credit 100 arrives as managers prepare to fill a financing void, playing a larger role in refinancing and providing liquidity to commercial property owners. This shift signifies a change in the capital stack, as institutional investors shift their focus toward private debt to capture higher yields in an environment defined by higher-for-longer interest rates and the ongoing repricing of office and retail assets.
