Growing Funds

Hi, interested to hear thoughts on some of the best growing firms in private capital across strategies (i.e potential to be mentioned alongside the big MFs in the next 10 years). Obviously the MFs continue to raise larger and larger funds but more interested in the up and coming players. A few names / themes I’ve heard anecdotally are Francisco Partners, Sixth Street Partners (ex TPG), higher return infra funds (GIP, Stonepeak), European funds like Permira and Partners expanding in the US.
