Advent International Raises $30 Billion, Including Nearly $27 Billion for Its 11th Flagship Buyout Fund
- On Tuesday, Advent Global Private Equity raised $30 billion across its latest fund complex, securing capital for a flagship buyout vehicle and a new mid-market strategy amid a sluggish exit market.
- Prolonged slowdown in the exit market has hampered buyout firms' ability to sell holdings, curtailing cash distributions to investors and leaving them with less capital to commit to new funds.
- Advent raised $27 billion for its 11th global private equity fund, GPE, the largest buyout fund closed so far in 2026, while securing more than $3 billion for a new mid-market strategy launched in March.
- GPE will invest across Europe and North America with primary focus, while expanding in Asia-Pacific and Latin American markets, targeting deal sizes between $100 million and $350 million in companies valued up to $1.25 billion.
- During 2026, Advent returned approximately $13 billion to investors through realisations across 27 businesses while investing around $10 billion across 38 new and existing businesses, demonstrating sustained activity despite market headwinds.
