Bulls say / Bears say

Fundraising momentum is improving: first-half gross inflows reached €17.8bn, fee-generating AUM rose to €155bn from €141bn, and EQT lifted its current-cycle fundraising outlook above €140bn. This should support recurring management fees as newly raised funds become active. (EQT, Financial Times)
The completed Coller Capital combination adds a dedicated secondaries platform, nine strategies and stronger access to insurance and private-wealth clients. It lifts total AUM to €341bn and fee-generating AUM to €186bn, broadening EQT’s revenue base beyond traditional buyouts. (EQT)
The new AI Infrastructure strategy reached about $9.4bn of fee-generating AUM shortly after launch and charges fees on net asset value. That gives EQT a fast-growing product in a high-demand theme with a potentially steadier fee stream than exit-dependent private equity. (EQT, EQT)
Core fee-related revenue fell 1% to €1.14bn in the first half, while fee-related EBITDA margin dropped to 50% from 54%. This shows that higher fee-generating AUM has not yet translated into stronger underlying earnings. (EQT)
Fund exits were €7bn in the first half, down from €13bn a year earlier, making carried-interest and performance income more dependent on a recovery in exit markets. Management still targets roughly €20bn of exits for 2026, but it acknowledged that market conditions can change the timing. (EQT, Investing.com)
Fundraising conditions are tougher, and the largest new funds will not fully add to fee-generating AUM until late 2026 or 2027. That delays the main earnings benefit from EQT XI and Infrastructure VII while private-credit evergreen and some real-estate products face fundraising pressure. (EQT, Investing.com)
