With Intelligence data reveals that private equity is bouncing back after a challenging two-year period. In 2023, many big firms had to revise down targets and extend fundraising periods, a trend that continued into 2024 for some GPs. Examples of the recovery are Apollo Global Management, Inc., which aims to surpass $20bn for its upcoming fund, and EQT Group, which is targeting $12.5bn for its new Asia Buyout Fund. Meanwhile, firms like Monomoy Capital Partners are exceeding expectations, closing at 140% of their targets.
