Asante Capital congratulates partner Afinum Management GmbH on the final close of Fund X at €500 million

We are pleased to announce the final close of Afinum Management GmbH’s Fund X at €500 million. The Fund represents the largest in the firm’s 25-year history and reflects strong support from both existing and new institutional investors.  

Fund X provides Afinum with capital to continue its established strategy of backing attractive, high-growth “Mittelstand” champions, where succession is typically a key consideration. The fund targets primary buyouts of medium-sized companies across the DACH region.
