Zug, Switzerland-headquartered global alternative asset manager Partners Group has won a mandate to manage an initial CHF200m and another mandate to manage an initial CHF300m on behalf of two European pension funds.
The mandates are expected to significantly increase over time.
Steffen Meister, CEO, Partners Group, said, 'December is shaping up to be one of the most active months in fundraising in all of 2008. We continue to see clients recognising that this market dislocation offers excellent investment opportunities for private market investors with a long-term perspective. Our portfolios will substantially benefit from distressed parties selling their private market assets on the secondary market at significant discounts to fair value.'
Partners Group has over CHF25bn in investment programmes under management across private equity, private debt, private real estate, private infrastructure, absolute return strategies and listed alternatives.
The firm manages funds, structured products and customised portfolios for institutional investors, private banks and other financial institutions.
