Ardian, a Paris, France-based private investment firm, raised $3.2 Billion for the sixth generation of its global co-investment platform, Ardian Co-Investment Fund VI, including Fund commitments and mandates from Ardian Customized Solutions.
The new fund received support from 188 investors globally, including from Europe, the Americas, the Middle East, and Asia. Investors comprised pensions funds, HNWIs, insurance companies and sovereign wealth funds.
Fund VI offers access to minority investments in companies alongside top-tier private equity sponsors. These GPs use its scale, expertise, local presence, and the team’s dedication to partnering with them, as demonstrated by GPs offering Ardian to co-underwrite most transactions. Fund VI investments are diversified across strategies, industries, company size, GPs, and geographies – including North America, Europe, and Asia. The team will continue to leverage its Secondaries and Primaries platform and access to a global network of 600+ GPs, to drive its approach to deal sourcing.
