Stoneshield Capital Closes Oversubscribed Opportunity Fund IV at €1.5 Billion Hard Cap
LUXEMBOURG, May 29 (Bernama) -- Stoneshield Capital, a leading European investment firm focused on building and scaling platforms across real assets, announced today the final close of Stoneshield Opportunity Fund IV at its hard cap of €1.5 billion in total capital commitments, excluding co-investments, surpassing its original €1.0 billion target. The Fund closed within six months at twice the size of its predecessor fund, underscoring the strength of Stoneshield’s differentiated investment strategy, institutional platform and track record of execution. The pace of the fundraise was particularly notable in the current environment, where, according to Preqin, real estate funds globally have averaged 17 months to close.
The Fund was significantly oversubscribed, with aggregate interest surpassing €2.0 billion. The fundraise was anchored by strong support from Stoneshield’s existing global limited partners, with a 100% re-up rate, and was expanded through commitments from a select group of new global investors, including leading sovereign wealth funds, global consultants, pensions, insurance companies, endowments, family offices, and foundations across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
