Partners Group opens new Stockholm office as the firm increases its long-term commitment to the Nordics

Partners Group, one of the largest firms in the global private markets industry, has opened a new office in Stockholm, Sweden, as part of its increased commitment to the region. The office will act as a strategic base for the firm to strengthen its investment capabilities and deepen its proximity to clients, partners, and institutional investors.   Partners Group has a strong track record in the Nordics having completed infrastructure, real estate, and private credit investments across multiple sectors, including digital infrastructure, logistics, and technology. Within infrastructure, Partners Group has built and successfully exited businesses with significant exposure to the region including atNorth, a pan-Nordic data center platform, and VSB Group, a pan-European renewable energy platform. Partners Group recently closed its latest direct infrastructure program at over USD 15 billion.   The Stockholm office will be led by Carina Spitzkopf, Head of Direct Lending DACH & Nordics, and will initially host dedicated investment professionals. The office builds on Partners Group's large existing European presence, where the firm has offices in Zug, Switzerland (global headquarters), Guernsey, London, Luxembourg, Milan, Munich, and Paris. The firm has USD 186 billion in assets under management globally.   Carina Spitzkopf, Head of Direct Lending DACH & Nordics, Partners Group, says: "The Nordics has become an increasingly important private markets hub in Europe, reflecting a stable regional economy, strong innovative culture, and large universe of mid-market companies. Alongside the significant potential we see in private credit, we also see attractive opportunities to invest more broadly across the region over the mid- to long term. A stronger local presence will enhance our ability to identify investment opportunities and support existing portfolio companies."   Oscar Huggare, Regional Head Nordic Client Solutions, Partners Group, adds: "The opening of our Stockholm office comes amidst the growing importance of the Nordic region from a capital formation perspective. As a strategic hub, the new office underscores our ambition to be an even more active participant in the region’s private markets ecosystem by partnering with local institutions and engaging with a growing network of operators and advisors."   The Stockholm office is located at the following address:   Partners Group Birger Jarlsgatan 4 114 34 Stockholm Sweden
