Credit Suisse Group is to sell its shares in mid-market buyout arm DLJ Merchant Banking Partners to Coller Capital, according to reports.
The deal is thought to have been approved by the Federal Trade Commission on Monday.

It focuses on investments in North America and western Europe, targeting buyouts across a range of sectors in the mid-market space. Typical investments range from $20-200m in firms with enterprise values of $200m-2bn.
The investor backed Zug-based energy management solutions firm Landis+Gyr in 2010 when it provided a $165m equity finance package to support the roll-out of its smart-metering systems.
Credit Suisse and Coller Capital could not be reached for comment.
