Partners Group has closed its latest private equity secondaries programme with more than $9bn in commitments.

The programme, which includes a flagship closed-end fund alongside bespoke mandates and co-investment vehicles, attracted a globally diversified investor base spanning Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the US, with significant participation from Asia-Pacific investors.

The vehicle is already 60% deployed, providing investors with immediate exposure to a diversified portfolio of assets managed by leading private equity firms. The rapid deployment reflects heightened activity in the secondaries market, where investors are increasingly seeking liquidity solutions and portfolio rebalancing options.

The closing follows a strong period of dealmaking for Partners Group, which invested more than $4bn in secondaries transactions globally last year. The firm continues to apply a thematic investment approach, leveraging insights from its direct private equity platform to identify sectors with favourable long-term tailwinds.

“We are uniquely positioned with one of the largest teams of direct investment professionals and industry experts, which means we have the ability to perform in-depth underwriting as we work closely with GPs to create custom solutions,” said Anthony Shontz, Partner and Co-Head Private Equity Partnership Investments at Partners Group.

Partners Group’s track record in secondaries remains a key differentiator, with the firm having invested approximately $40bn in the strategy since 1998 and prior programmes delivering top-quartile performance, according to MSCI Burgiss.
