 European mid-market private equity firm Englefield Capital has closed its second fund, Englefield Capital II, on €1.06bn. The original target of the fund was €1bn. As was the case with Fund I, Englefield Capital II was raised principally from Bregal, the investment vehicle of the Brenninkmeijer family, Axa and Delta Lloyd. Additional capital came from more than 120 business people known to the partners at Englefield.
The new fund will focus on equity investments of between €30m and €150m in Europe in sectors including business services, particularly outsourcing and recruitment; education; energy; financial services; and healthcare.
Dominic Shorthouse at Englefield said, 'I am grateful for the renewed support of our investors and delighted that we have raised this second, substantial fund. We believe it reflects confidence in our team, our strategy and particularly the way we have invested our first fund.'
Englefield's first fund, The Englefield Fund, closed on €706m in May 2003.
