Investors include high quality Nordic institutions, US university endowments, charitable foundations and other leading international institutions.
 
“Demand for Altor Fund V has been extremely strong, with many existing investors increasing the size of their investment as well as significant interest from new investors,” says Laurence Zage, a Managing Director at Monument Group. “This is testament not only to Altor’s track record of value creation and ability to generate superior returns, but also their trustworthiness and transparency. We are proud to have assisted Altor with each of their previous fundraises in a relationship that dates back more than 15 years.”
 
“Through our longstanding relationship, Monument Group has developed a deep understanding of our story and market strategy,” says Harald Mix, a Partner at Altor. “Because of this, we have a tremendous amount of confidence in the Monument Group team that they can successfully marshal the fundraising process, thereby enabling us to focus on making and managing our investments and building world-class companies. We are grateful to Monument Group for their support once again with this successful fundraise.”
