Exits were also up 34% with transactions worth a total of USD 468 bn, with an increase in exit count over the same period, according to the report. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The number of closed funds dropped,<\/strong> and over a third of those that did close had been fundraising for two years or more. Limited partners (LPs) prioritized established firms with strong track records, making it tougher for smaller or newer funds to attract capital, Bain said. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The key takeaway: <\/strong>GPs will need to differentiate themselves through operational value creation rather than relying on financial engineering, Bain advised. Mega-funds and sector specialists are expected to lead in fundraising, while generalist strategies are more likely to face headwinds, according to the report.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>\u201cThat spells a clear mandate for GPs:<\/strong> If you can\u2019t offer investors a differentiated value proposition, raising your next fund is going to be a serious challenge,\u201d according to the report.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>GPs have already started to get creative<\/strong>, leveraging minority stake sales, dividend recaps, secondaries, and NAV loans \u2014 strategies that have already generated USD 360 bn last year without full divestments. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>A bumpy year ahead: <\/strong>\u201cIt won\u2019t all be better in 2025 [...] it's a three- or four-year problem,\u201d Chair of Bain\u2019s global private equity practice, Hugh MacArthur told the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/c7acc472-477c-496c-bf88-cf1be4b2879c\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Financial Times<\/a>, adding that \u201cthe pace of liquidity coming back to [fund investors] continues to be stressed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">MARKETS THIS MORNING- <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Asian markets opened higher this morning<\/strong>, tracking gains on Wall Street following US President Donald Trump\u2019s decision to delay tariffs on some automakers.
