Partners Fund

Partners Group operates as a leading global private markets firm, delivering a comprehensive suite of investment solutions across private equity, private infrastructure, private real estate, and private debt. The firm constructs and manages diverse investment vehicles, including specialized funds, tailored structured products, and bespoke client portfolios. This multi-asset approach enables Partners Group to deploy capital strategically across various private market segments, focusing on value creation through active ownership and operational improvements in underlying assets.

The company was co-founded in 1996 by Marcel Erni, Urs Wietlisbach, and Alfred Gantner in Zug, Switzerland. Their foundational insight stemmed from recognizing a significant opportunity within the nascent European private equity landscape, which lacked the structured competition prevalent in North America. The founders sought to redefine "risk capital" beyond venture capital, establishing a firm dedicated to broader private market investments. Their collective experience laid the groundwork for the firm's early success and strategic expansion.

Partners Group serves an extensive international clientele, including institutional investors, private banks, and individual wealth managers, by offering access to illiquid private market investments. The firm’s long-term vision centers on pioneering innovative investment structures and consistently expanding its global footprint. By continuously adapting its offerings and identifying new investment frontiers, Partners Group aims to remain at the forefront of the evolving private markets industry.
