Aliter completes fundraising for £134m fund targeting UK support services sector

Aliter Capital (Aliter), a private equity investment specialist focused on the UK support services sector, has completed fundraising for its second fund, Aliter Capital II, with £134m committed by investors.

Aliter’s investment strategy is to create medium sized operators in the UK support services sector through the acquisition and integration of smaller businesses and organic growth. Aliter’s approach differs from traditional private equity models, by making only a limited number of selective portfolio investments to deliver dedicated support around strategy, organisational development, operational capability and overall business quality.

The Aliter Capital II Fund is backed by a consortium of US and European institutions, including pension funds, funds of funds, university endowments and charitable foundations. Aliter’s founding partners have also made a significant financial commitment to the fund.
