Have some detail I can provide here (friend works there) -

Basically KKR’s response to feeling like they missed a lot of great mid size deals (basically anything $100M-$1B) that didn’t fit an existing strategy. Most MFs were already playing in this space in some way or another (either by willing to go smaller out of their main funds or with dedicated smaller fund vehicles).

Idea is to leverage KKR platform/expertise/ops team/etc. Unclear to me if this is a dedicated team vs just existing IPs working on deals of both sizes (I assume answer is a mix of both).

My understanding is it will invest in anything but probably a slant to tech. Have done one deal out of it already (was a tech deal).

It makes sense IMO, tech focused funds have had an awesome run with their down market funds (Thoma, Vista, Hg all have different sized vehicles) and it’s another way to pick up AUM.

Question will be if they can actually beat UMM/MM funds at their own game as there is just a lot more competition in the sub-1b check size vs what KKR is used to. Will be interesting to see how it goes for then
