Global private equity firm Bain Capital has raised $10.5 billion for its Bain Capital Asia Fund VI - including $9.1 billion of external commitments, said a company statement.
Bain Capital partners, employees, and related entities committed the balance of capital and collectively are the single largest investor in the fund - which exceeded its original target of $7 billion, it said.
Across Asia, Bain Capital has built a fully integrated platform spanning Japan, India, China, Australia, and Korea, with nearly 200 investment and operating professionals investing across Technology, Industrials, Consumer, Healthcare, and Business and Financial Services, it added.
"Bain Capital’s private equity business has always been built around helping companies realize their full potential through operational improvement, strategic change, and close partnership with management teams,” said Yuji Sugimoto, Partner and Head of Asia Private Equity.
“ We continue to see significant opportunity across the region, and we are investing in our people, our technology, and the broader capabilities of the platform so we can keep scaling in a disciplined way and delivering over the long term.”
Bain Capital’s Asia platform is particularly well positioned for complex, change-oriented situations which include corporate carve-outs, founder transitions, industry consolidation, domestic restructuring, and cross-border growth opportunities, it added.
Last month, Swedish fund EQT raised Asia Pacific’s largest private equity fund, closing BPEA IX at $15.6 billion in total commitments.
