Warburg Pincus has returned nearly $10bn to investors this year, setting a record for realisations in the first half of 2025 as the firm accelerates its pace of exits, according to a report by Bloomberg.

The private equity group has completed about $42bn in realisations since 2022, while investing around $25bn over the same period. Recent disposals include the multibillion-dollar sale of health records software provider ModMed to Clearlake Capital, HR software group Neogov to EQT and Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, and industrial pumps and compressor maker Sundyne to Honeywell.

The milestone comes at a time when private equity managers face mounting pressure to return capital to investors amid a challenging market environment. Many firms have increasingly turned to continuation funds or minority stake sales, but Warburg’s ability to execute multiple full exits strengthens its positioning with limited partners.

Founded in the 1960s, Warburg Pincus closed its most recent flagship vehicle on $17.3bn in 2023. The firm’s latest momentum is expected to support future fundraising efforts.
