General Atlantic, a global growth investor, has completed its acquisition of Actis, a global investor in sustainable infrastructure. 

The combination further expands General Atlantic’s diversified investment platform to approximately $97 billion in assets under management, based on valuations as of June 30, 2024, across sectors, regions, and strategies to capture the most compelling opportunities for its investing clients.

Actis will operate as General Atlantic’s Sustainable Infrastructure business alongside its existing strategies in Growth Equity, Credit, and Climate. The combination reinforces both firms’ collective commitment to sustainability and the energy transition and will deliver a broader set of investment solutions for investors. 

Actis will continue to be led by its Chairman and Senior Partner, Torbjorn Caesar, and will retain independence over its investment decisions with its funds operating under the Actis brand.

Bill Ford, Chairman and CEO of General Atlantic, said: “Actis represents a transformative moment in our continued growth as a diversified private investing platform. Together, we are uniquely positioned to forge deeper relationships with our investors and unlock opportunities that lie at the intersection of our core investment themes – including the energy transition, the digital economy, and the shift in economic growth to developing economies.” 

“We share a commitment to investment excellence and, as a combined firm, are energized about the value we bring to both our investors and portfolio companies.”
