EQT has set the target size for the EQT Infrastructure VI fund at €20 billion ($19.97 billion).
The EQT Infrastructure VI fund’s investment strategy and commercial terms are expected to be materially in line with the predecessor fund EQT Infrastructure V, which closed in November 2021 with €15.7 billion ($15.68 billion) in capital commitments.
EQT Infrastructure’s thematic investment strategy is focused on backing companies within its core sectors: energy, transport and logistics, environmental, digital and social infrastructure.
EQT’s capital raisings usually follow a cycle with successor funds targeted to be in a position to commence investment activities when the predecessor fund is nearly fully invested. This means that the commitment period of the predecessor fund typically ends when 80 percent to 90 percent of its total commitments are invested, with remaining commitments being available primarily for add-on acquisitions and strategic capital inj
