The oversubscribed fund targets direct investments in middle market companies based primarily in North America alongside top-tier private equity sponsors.

Dextra Partners, a multi-strategy private equity firm focused on the middle market, today announced the successful closing of Dextra Co-investment Fund VII at its $825 million hard cap. The fund significantly exceeded its initial $650 million target and brings Dextra’s total assets under management to approximately $5 billion.

The fund attracted commitments from a global investor base including pensions, insurance companies, asset managers, family offices, and high net worth individuals. Sixty percent of investors have experience working with the firm’s six founding partners prior to the establishment of Dextra in 2022. Half of the commitments originated from outside the United States.

“We are incredibly grateful for our investors’ strong and enthusiastic support,” said the founding partners. “We believe this is a testament to our ability to deliver differentiated investment opportunities sourced from top-tier middle market sponsors utilizing our holistic partnership-oriented business model.”

The fund seeks to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns through equity co-investments in resilient middle market companies. Opportunities are originated from sponsors where Dextra builds deep relationships as a meaningful limited partner typically early in their life cycle. Dextra’s integrated investment model aims to optimize sourcing and decision-making by facilitating ease of use, transaction insights, and access to subject matter experts.

“Middle market private equity, while a highly attractive segment, can be challenging to navigate,” the founding partners added. “We believe our co-investment program offers investors an efficient route to access high quality portfolios built through our differentiated GP relationships and time-tested investment process.”
