TORONTO, Jan. 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fengate Asset Management (‘Fengate’) today announced the final close of its flagship closed-ended infrastructure fund, Fengate Infrastructure Fund IV (‘Fund IV’ or ‘the Fund’) at US$1.1 billion, exceeding its fundraising target.

In 2024, Fengate raised US$200 million for Fund IV co-investment vehicles, US$550 million for eStruxture Data Centers continuation vehicles, and US$140 million for Fengate Infrastructure Yield Fund, for a total of US$2 billion including Fund IV commitments.

Fund IV received strong support from investors across Canada, the United States, Europe and Japan. These investors represent public and private pension plans, including an investment by the LiUNA Pension Fund of Central and Eastern Canada, insurance companies and fund of funds managers.

“We exceeded our fundraising target to close the largest fund ever raised by Fengate,” said George Theodoropoulos, Managing Partner at Fengate. “This success underscores investors’ confidence in our strategy and ability to deliver strong results, despite an exceptionally challenging fundraising environment.”

“Fund IV also significantly expanded our investor base and geographic reach. We are grateful for the support from both existing and new investors.”
