The Morning Brief: Glade Brook Debuts Another Private Fund

Paul Hudson’s Glade Brook Capital Partners is once again passing the hat for a new fund that will invest in private companies. The Tiger Grandcub has raised at least $37.5 million for the fund, Glade Brook Private Investors VII, according to a regulatory filing. The minimum investment is $1 million. There are no further details in the filing.

We reported in July that the Greenwich, Connecticut firm launched Glade Brook Private Investors VI. We also recently reported that the firm now manages about $1 billion, down from $1.3 billion the previous quarter and $1.439 billion at year-end. Glade Brook’s public equity vehicles now account for just $313 million of the $1 billion total, while private equity vehicles account for $730 million. This compares with $684 million in hedge funds and $755 million in private equity funds at year-end.
