EQT has launched its latest credit fund and aims to launch its private equity flagship in early 2027, according to executives speaking on the firm's Q3 earnings call. The firm says it is fully focused on the launch of its infrastructure secondaries business, a move that reflects growing investor demand for secondary market exposure to infrastructure assets.
The announcement comes as the secondaries market continues to attract significant capital. Managers across the industry have been expanding their offerings to meet demand from limited partners seeking liquidity and access to mature assets, and EQT's entry into this segment places it alongside peers building dedicated infrastructure secondaries platforms.
EQT's executives indicated that the firm's priorities are concentrated on bringing the new infrastructure secondaries business to market while continuing to deliver its existing credit strategy. The sequencing of the flagship private equity fund in early 2027 underscores a deliberate fundraising timetable.
The update is part of a busy period for fundraising across private markets, with several managers reporting progress on dedicated secondaries vehicles and flagship funds in recent months. EQT's commitment to the infrastructure secondaries launch signals its intent to compete for a share of this growing pool of capital.
