Lindsay Goldberg has closed its sixth private equity fund, Lindsay Goldberg VI LP (Fund VI), with $4.9 billion in capital, exceeding its $4.0 billion target and finishing more than 40% larger than its earlier fifth fund.
Fund VI was backed largely by returning limited partners alongside new investors, including public and private pension funds, sovereign wealth funds, insurance companies, asset managers, family offices, and high net worth investors across North America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, South America, and Australia.
The raising of Fund VI follows a busy 2025 for Lindsay Goldberg, during which the firm generated more than $1.5 billion in realizations. Since its founding in 2001, the firm has raised $24 billion and invested $17 billion across 66 platform companies and more than 350 add-on acquisitions.
