BAAR-ZUG, Switzerland, 3 April 2025 – Montana Capital Partners (mcp) has acquired a substantial private equity portfolio from Prudential Financial, Inc. (PFI)), a global financial services company based in the US. mcp is an established mid-market global private equity secondaries investment manager and part of PGIM Private Alternatives, the US$330 billion private alternatives strategies manager of PGIM, the global asset manager of PFI.1

The deal portfolio consists of mid-market inflection buyout assets across a number of funds and co-investments and has been acquired on behalf of mcp’s most recent edition of the Opportunities Secondary Program (OSP) and select mcp co-investors.

“The nature of this transaction makes it a landmark deal in the middle market”, Dr. Stephan Wessel, CEO and managing partner of mcp, commented. “We were able to apply our data-driven underwriting approach to identify assets that align with mcp’s investment criteria while meeting PFI’s portfolio rebalancing objective. This kind of partnership, providing such a highly customized portfolio management solution, is unique and likely to be a model replicated in the future.

Dr. Stephan Wessel, CEO, Montana Capital Partners

“This deal underscores the benefit of PGIM’s collaborative approach and the value of being part of the PFI platform and is a key step in what we hope will be a long-term partnership between mcp and PFI’s CIO team”, Wessel added.

The portfolio will continue to be managed by Prudential Select Strategies (PSS), a subsidiary of PFI, managing approximately US$18 billion in alternative assets for PFI and third-party investors.1
