\n

IQ-EQ is pleased to share that our Guernsey funds team, together with Carey Olsen<\/a>\u2019s investment funds team in Guernsey, have assisted Queen’s Park Equity<\/a> (“QPE”) on the successful launch of Queen’s Park Equity Partners II (“Fund II”), which closed oversubscribed at \u00a3305 million.<\/h3>\n

The fundraise, which took just\u00a0four months, received significant support from existing investors, demonstrated by the\u00a0re-up rate of 114%, as well as welcoming new investors. The blue-chip limited partner (LP) base includes endowments, foundations, institutional family offices, pension funds and funds of funds.<\/p>\n

The amount raised by Fund II is more than a 50% increase on QPE Fund I, which also closed oversubscribed at \u00a3202 million. Fund\u00a0II will employ the same strategy as Fund\u00a0I and work directly with founders and entrepreneurs across the\u00a0education,\u00a0health and pharmaceuticals,\u00a0and\u00a0tech services\u00a0sectors.<\/p>\n

Leading the team at IQ-EQ Guernsey is funds director Tim Wilson, supported by funds onboarding manager Luke Gardner, senior officer Patrick Bougourd and administrator Samantha Warr.<\/p>\n

Tim commented: “We\u2019re delighted to be partnering with Queen\u2019s Park Equity on their second fund; the response from investors has been incredible.\u00a0 We\u2019re grateful for the opportunity to continue strengthening our partnership with QPE and wish them every success in becoming the leading private equity firm within the UK lower-mid-market.\u201d<\/p>\n
