Altor holds final close on €2.5bn hard-cap

The vehicle was registered in Sweden in August, but began its official marketing period in September.

The firm capped its predecessor at €2bn and reached that volume in three months, holding a final close in July 2014, according to Unquote Data. It was approximately 70% deployed as of March 2018 and has completed three deals since then.

Monument Group acted as placement agent for the fundraise and has advised on all four of the GP’s previous vehicles.

Altor declined to comment.
