General Atlantic / Actis
Anyone (perhaps working at either of these funds or close to the deal) know anything about this? Pretty interesting: https://www.reuters.com/markets/deals/general-atl…

In my view, for General Atlantic, this is all planned in tandem with their IPO. Rumours are they're in preliminary talks, and as one of the best growth funds in the world – it's probably about time. CVC recently pulled theirs due to markets but looks like that's also on the radar, and it's likely that a pure growth firm may or may not have done so well – I know they're beginning to tread deeper into buyouts (Adevinta) but a more interesting thing is that they're really transitioning to the classic MF PE firms with arms everywhere like their peers. GA bought Iron Park last year through Atlantic Park, and now that's their credit arm (probably can expand this into debt financing at some point). Going into infra probably provides a good offset of cyclicality, at worst
This is not your view as it is the view of the entire market. GA's push into real assets is clearly geared towards their eventual intended listing. I wouldn't say investing into infra is a 'good offset of cyclicality' these days though. If private credit doesn't blow up next year, my bet is it's real assets. The entire asset class has been on an absolute tear the last decade and 'my view' is that fundraising for infra will be at a virtual standstill next year. 2024 is going to be a wild ride.
Curious to hear why you think private credit could blow up?
Is there any good reading to why a GA-type private equity firm would go public and how it effects everyone from partner down normally?
