STOCKHOLM, Oct. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ —

Strong fundraising momentum and attractive deal flow

“As we enter the final quarter of the year, and I reflect on the challenges and opportunities ahead for private market investors, the attractiveness of the EQT platform is clear. Our newest initiatives – the AI Infrastructure strategy and the Scaleup Europe Fund – have exceptional early momentum and reflect the positive client reception to our newly launched thematic strategies in areas of strength for our platform. In Q3, we closed the acquisition of Coller Capital, making us an even more strategic partner for private market investors. And today we announce the acquisition of Stockbridge, marking the next step in the development of the EQT Real Estate business line. In the quarter we also established our first office in the Middle East. Across strategies we see good deal flow and value creation, and we remain focused on driving monetisations and liquidity.”

Per Franzén,
CEO and Managing Partner
