Arctos Partners, a private equity firm headquartered in Dallas, has closed Arctos Sports Partners Fund II, the latest iteration of its flagship sports fund, with over $4.1 billion in capital commitments.
Approximately 30 percent of Fund II’s capital has been deployed across several investments, including Smith Entertainment Group, the holding company that owns the Utah Jazz; Harris Blitzer Sports Entertainment, the owner of New Jersey Devils and Philadelphia 76ers; Paris Saint-Germain F.C.; and Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team.
Evercore Private Funds Group acted as global placement agent for the Fund II raise and Kirkland & Ellis LLP provided legal counsel to Arctos.
