Blackstone has secured more than $12 billion for its latest Asia-Pacific buyout fund, defying challenging market conditions. The fund exceeded its target and is expected to reach final close at its $12.9 billion cap, demonstrating the firm's continued ability to attract capital despite higher interest rates and limited exits that have slowed private equity activity.

InfraVia Capital Partners closed its sixth-generation infrastructure fund at the €8 billion hard cap, surpassing its €7 billion target in just 18 months. Over 50% of commitments came from international investors, with more than 80 new limited partners joining, reflecting global confidence in European infrastructure assets and the firm's fundraising momentum.

Partners Group is targeting at least $1 billion for its inaugural India-focused buyout fund as the Switzerland-based firm expands in one of the fastest-growing private equity markets globally. The fund structure will finalize in coming weeks, operating alongside Partners Group's global flagship fund, bringing potential investment in India to approximately $2 billion over time.
