Private equity giant Blackstone‘s latest Asia fundraise was the big private equity winner amid $1.35bn of new alternative asset commitments from the Minnesota State Board of Investment.
Blackstone picked up a $300m commitment to BCP Asia II, which is believed to be targeting at least $5bn.
The firm closed its debut Asia private equity fund on $2.3bn in 2018, at the same time it hit the $7.1bn hard cap for its mammoth Blackstone Real Estate Partners Asia II fund.
Fellow private equity house TPG bagged two commitments from MSBI, receiving $150m towards its fifth growth fund and an identical amount to its $3bn-targeting Tech Adjacencies Fund II.
TPG is understood to be eyeing $4bn for TPG Growth V, just above the $3.7bn it collected for Growth IV in 2017.
MSBI also committed $150m to KKR MN Partnership, which is believed to be a co-investment vehicle.
In real estate the LP has agreed to provide $300m to Carlyle Real Estate Partners IX and another $300m to Brookfield Strategic Real Estate Partners IV.
Carlyle is reportedly eyeing up to $6bn for its latest real estate vehicle, while Brookfield is hoping to collect a mighty $17bn.
Minnesota SBI had about $116.8bn of assets under management at the end of March.
