EQT sets hard cap for EQT IX at EUR 15 billion

EQT has today set the hard cap for investor commitments of EUR 15 billion for the EQT IX fund. A hard cap refers to an upper limit on the amount of investor commitments accepted as part of the fund. The actual fund size is dependent on the outcome of the fundraising process.

As previously communicated, the target fund size for EQT IX is EUR 14.75 billion and the fund’s investment strategy and commercial terms are expected to be materially in line with the predecessor fund EQT VIII.
