Singapore-based Aquilius Investment Partners, a group of investment professionals formerly employed at Blackstone Inc and Partners Group, has raised a new secondary investment vehicle with aggregate commitments of approximately $750m, according to a report by Bloomberg.
The fund will target purchases of existing private equity fund stakes and GP-led continuation vehicles. It is Aquilius’ second fund, following a $400m fund launched in 2023. The firm was co-founded in 2021 by Christian Keiber of Blackstone and Bastian Wolff of Partners. The firm currently has 30 staff and manages about $2bn.
The firm’s funding primarily comes from sovereign wealth funds, pension funds, and family offices.
