Cinven Looks to Raise New 8-10B Euro Fund

August 20, 2008

Pan-European buyout firm Cinven is looking to raise a new fund valued between 8-10B euros.  The new fund will be the firm’s fifth after raising a 6.5B euro fund in 2006 (at the time Europe’s largest).

Additionally Cinven has shaken up it’s partnership structure ahead of the fundraising.  This includes the retirement of co-founder Dick Munton, the departure of Gordon Moore, and the promotion of three senior investors to partner.
