Capital Dynamics, an independent global private asset management firm, has held the final close of Capital Dynamics Future Essentials II (Future Essentials II) with EUR300 million in commitments.
The fund is managed by a multinational investment team in North America, Europe and Asia and invests in high quality, limited access private equity primary funds, particularly mid-market buyout and growth capital funds, with additional allocation to co-investments and secondary transactions. This second-time fund significantly surpassed the size of its predecessor fund, which closed in January 2019.
Future Essentials II has already made substantial commitments through its access to propriety deal flow across primaries, secondaries and co-investments – enabled by Capital Dynamics’ more than three decades of experience and long-term relationships with over 350 private equity fund managers globally. The Fund targets private equity managers across Europe, North America and Asia that demonstrate a proven track record of operational value creation through strategic development of portfolio companies and robust sales growth. Capital Dynamics selects managers that have a strong focus on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles and view ESG as an instrument for enhancing operational value creation.
