Bregal Sagemount Announces Final Close for Fourth Private Equity Fund at Hard Cap

Date: October 20, 2022
Category: Firm news

NEW YORK – October 20, 2022 – Bregal Sagemount (“Sagemount”), a leading growth-focused private equity firm, announced today it has held the final closing for Bregal Sagemount Fund IV (“Fund IV” or the “Fund”) at the hard cap of $2.5 billion, 66% larger than its prior fund.

Fund IV will continue the investment strategy Sagemount has pursued since inception in 2012, providing flexible, solution-oriented capital to durable growth businesses with high recurring revenues, operating in end-markets with uncorrelated secular growth characteristics.

"We are extremely grateful and humbled by the continued confidence and support from our existing investors and are excited to welcome a select number of new thought-leading institutional investors to the Sagemount family. Despite macro headwinds, this support showcases the confidence our investor group has expressed in Sagemount’s ability to partner with market leading entrepreneurs to generate attractive investments across market cycles.”"

Founder and Managing Partner - Bregal Sagemount

Sagemount launched the Fund IV raise earlier this year and was fully allocated over the summer. The Fund had a 100% Limited Partner participation rate and a 130% re-up rate by dollar value. Similar to prior fundraises, Sagemount spent time identifying and working with a targeted group of new investors with which to build a long-term partnership. The Fund IV investor base is comprised of institutional investors with long-term commitments to private equity, including leading endowments, pension funds, large family office investors, and key consultant relationships.

"In a tight fundraising market where the term ’flat is the new up’ best describes high conviction re-ups, we benefitted from substantial existing investor loyalty and new investor interest. We haven’t lost an investor since inception and have never taken that vote of confidence for granted."
