Medial
Private equity firm Multiples Alternate Asset Management has raised $430 million for a continuation fund to extend its investment in three portfolio companies — Vastu Housing Finance, Quantiphi, and APAC Financial Services. The transaction allows investors in Multiples Fund II to monetize their investments while enabling the firm to continue holding on to high-performing assets, according to a press release. The continuation fund, which was oversubscribed, is backed by four global investors — HarbourVest Partners, Hamilton Lane, LGT Capital Partners, and TPG NewQuest. Some existing Fund II investors have also rolled over their commitments into the new vehicle. Vastu Housing Finance is focused on affordable housing credit, Quantiphi provides AI and digital engineering solutions, and APAC Financial Services is an emerging financial platform with a growing nationwide presence. The fund also includes additional capital for follow-on investments in these companies. Renuka Ramnath-led Multiples has backed more than 35 companies and seen exits across IPOs, strategic sales, and secondary transactions.

Indian investment firms India Quotient and Multiples PE are considering using continuation funds to stay invested in successful portfolio companies as the fund cycle nears its end. Continuation funds provide an exit for limited partners while allowing investment firms to remain invested in high-performing assets. Other firms, such as Kae Capital and Westbridge Capital, are also exploring the use of continuation funds. This vehicle offers an exit route for limited partners and eliminates early risk for new investors. Continuation funds are gaining popularity, and more of these may emerge in the coming years.
