What happened

Partners Group is prepared to restrict investor withdrawals across more of its funds, the Swiss private markets giant said Thursday, after capping redemptions in one of its European vehicles following a surge in exit requests.

Why it matters

The Zurich-listed fund manager warned that the spike in client withdrawals that upended private credit markets this year now appears to be spilling over into the private equity space.

Common ground

On Wednesday, Partners Group said it was halting withdrawals from its Global Value SICAV vehicle at 5%, after redemption requests hit 9.8%.
