Partners Group Completes Full Exit from Aavas Financiers

Partners Group, a major player in the global private markets industry, has sold its final stake in Aavas Financiers to CVC Capital Partners. This marks a complete exit for Partners Group, yielding a strong return for investors. Initially acquiring a significant stake in 2016, Partners Group listed Aavas in India in 2018, gradually reducing its shareholding since.

Founded in 2011, Aavas focuses on affordable housing finance in India, serving underserved income segments. Under Partners Group's guidance, Aavas expanded its assets under management by over 12x to INR 204 billion, and improved net income around 18x to INR 5.7 billion.

This transaction underscores Partners Group's strategy of building sustainable businesses. It highlights their capacity to navigate challenges, enhancing management and operational efficiencies. This exit follows the firm's previous investment and stake sale in Vishal Mega Mart.
