Private Equity & Capital Raising

Ampersand Capital Partners secured $1.5bn for its latest healthcare-focused vehicle, hitting the hard cap for the oversubscribed fund. This liquidity event mirrors a broader recovery in the sector, where infrastructure fundraising reached $1.2tn this cycle, though the shift in momentum favors managers with specialized mandates over traditional generalists. Meanwhile, anchor investors are increasingly opting for co-investment structures, moving away from solitary bets to mitigate risk when backing less established fund strategies in a competitive market.

Infrastructure & Energy Transition

Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners is targeting €16bn for its latest renewables flagship, aiming to surpass the €12bn raised by its predecessor in March 2025. This aggressive capital accumulation coincides with Reinova’s pursuit of a $500m first close for its debut energy transition fund, a milestone the manager expects to reach within 10 months of launching the strategy. As these vehicles scale, largest infrastructure GPs are aligning their investment theses around the $7tn capital expenditure supercycle required to support artificial intelligence and data center power demands.

Strategic Partnerships & Institutional Mandates

AllianzGI is signaling a shift in its allocation preferences, moving beyond a reliance on flagship funds to demand more tailored co-investment opportunities from infrastructure managers. This tactical reallocation is already manifesting in specific regional deals, such as Altérra’s decision to join I Squared Capital’s $600m continuation vehicle for a Peruvian power utility. Such partnerships demonstrate the growing influence of sovereign wealth capital in de-risking complex infrastructure assets while providing GPs with the necessary support to execute large-scale, cross-border energy projects.
