Aberdeen to launch €1bn fund in joint venture with 21 Partners

The vehicle, which will have a 15-year lifespan, will acquire minority stakes in European businesses to support their growth and help them face new challenges such as disruption within their industry and generational changes in their management team.

In addition to this main investment strategy, the fund will also target attractive companies with high-growth potential for shorter investment opportunities.

The joint venture, which will be based in London, will be led by 21 Partners founder and managing partner Alessandro Benetton, while the executive board will be equally split between members of both firms.
