 The Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP) has made a number of additional commitments to private equity funds, including the French LBO fund managed by PAI Management.
The move is part of CPP's new strategy, unveiled last June, to invest up to ten per cent of its total assets in private equity.
It has earmarked E100m to PAI Europe III, reflecting its current interest in European opportunities. Earlier in the year, it also hit the headlines when it committed capital to three UK-based funds managed by Bridgepoint Capital, Coller Capital and Candover.
CPP has also agreed to commit to two US-based funds, a $60m commitment to Carlyle Venture Partners and a $75m commitment to MPM Bioventures III.
