Partners Group Splits €6.6 Billion Fund and Builds French Rental Platform While Bolstering Infrastructure Team
Published on 11/09/2026 at 18:41 | Editorial boerse-global.de
Partners Group has proposed carving its €6.6 billion Global Value SICAV into two sub-funds, with a shareholder vote scheduled for the week beginning November 9, according to media reports. The restructuring would separate younger investments into an accumulating sub-fund, while older holdings would be pooled in a distributing vehicle — a division drawn along the age of the assets. Bloomberg reported that the quarterly redemption limit for both sub-funds is set to fall to 2.5%.
The fund overhaul sits alongside a broader push on the continent. Partners Group is targeting a gross asset value of €300 million for its French residential strategy, "French New Living," aiming to assemble roughly 2,000 rental apartments within the next twelve months. Urban Campus is lined up as developer and operator for the secured properties.
560 Apartments Locked In
Two forward-purchase agreements have already secured 560 apartments in Choisy-le-Roi and Pantin, giving the firm a committed base for the wider portfolio. Those agreements fix the acquisition of the units in advance. The €300 million target applies to the planned portfolio as a whole, not just the apartments already under contract.
Should investors sell immediately? Or is it worth buying Partners Group?
On the personnel side, Partners Group has strengthened its European direct infrastructure team with three appointments spanning both leadership and asset management. Philip Butcher is due to join in November as a Managing Director in London. Timm Degenhardt is slated to come on board as a Managing Director in Zug in March 2027. Sarah Johnson has already started, having joined in September 2026 as a Senior Lead Asset Manager.
The hires cover both the senior ranks and the hands-on management of assets, as the firm balances a fund restructuring and a French housing build-out against a tighter redemption regime.
