One Equity Partners, a NYC-based middle market private equity firm, closed its sixth fund, at $1.65 billion.

Investors in One Equity Partners VI span North America, Europe, Asia, Australia, and the Middle East and include pension funds, financial institutions, sovereign wealth funds, consultants, and family offices. The fund also received investments from current and former portfolio company management teams, as well as a number of private equity founders and veteran dealmakers with whom the firm’s team has long-standing relationships.
