LONDON, May 5, 2026 – Proskauer advised Investindustrial on the first and final closing of Investindustrial Lower Mid-Market IV (the “Fund”) at its hard cap of €1.5 billion, following a fundraising process of less than four months.

The Fund’s predecessor, Investindustrial Lower Mid-Market III, raised €1.1 billion in 2023. Investindustrial Lower Mid-Market IV was oversubscribed, with exceptionally strong support from existing investors as well as substantial demand from new groups, resulting in overall capital demand of more than 150% of hard cap.

With 36 years of investment experience, Investindustrial has established itself as the leading operationally driven investor, partnering with ambitious mid-market businesses across Europe through its global platform and dominant position in Southern Europe. The Lower Mid-Market programme has invested in 20 platform investments and a further 80 add-on acquisitions globally

The Proskauer team was led by partners Duncan Woollard and Ian Ferguson and included associates James Anders, Hadrian Beckett, Zuaib Kassam and Leander Rodricks, special counsel Rachel Lowe, and paralegals Joe Charlton, Andrew Culver and Davina Kourdi (Private Funds). In the US, the team included partners Marc Persily (Private Funds) and partners Nathan Schuur and Robert Sutton (Regulatory).
