Eurazeo has launched two investment vehicles designed for the European market. These two new Evergreen funds are specialised by asset class. Eurazeo Prime Income Credit (EPIC) – for private debt – and Eurazeo Prime Strategic Opportunities (EPSO) – for secondary private equity – are intended for distribution in several European countries, including Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
EPIC and EPSO, whose commercialisation and investment phase will begin shortly, have an initial capital of more than €100m each, with contributions from Eurazeo and a leading institutional investor.
EPIC and EPSO build on EPVE 3. Established in 2018 and comprising more than €3bn in assets under management, invested in both secondary private equity and private debt in more than 250 European companies, EPVE 3 is the largest French-law Evergreen fund in the private markets in Europe.
