KKR partners with Capital Group to launch fund blending public and private equity
KKR and Capital Group will launch a fund that will give investors exposure to both private and public equity, the investment firms said on Wednesday, as appetite rises for diversification beyond traditional assets. The fund will be launched in early 2026 in the U.S., pending approval from regulators. It is structured as an interval fund, which allows investors to exit only during set windows, and will have low minimum investment thresholds. With high-profile companies remaining private for longer, investment firms are seeking new ways to meet rising demand for exposure to private markets. The potential for outsized returns from privately held companies has drawn interest from retail investors. These assets are also less sensitive to the economic swings that impact public markets, making them useful for diversification. "Private market investments can enhance returns and add diversification within a portfolio, yet have historically been out of reach for everyday investors given accreditation requirements and higher investment minimums," said Holly Framsted, head of product group at Capital. The new fund will deepen the partnership between KKR and Capital, which in April launched two funds focused on a mix of public and private credit. These funds have pulled in $100 million in flows in the first three months, the companies said.

♓ Pisces Daily Horoscope for July 30, 2025
Love: Quiet Moments, Big Meanings Don't underestimate the small gestures today—one subtle smile or kind word can deepen your connection. If you're in a relationship, today's vibe is soft and safe. If single, a new connection may appear in a familiar setting, like work or a casual gathering. Open your heart, but don't rush. Finance: Dream Big, But Plan Practically Your creative mind may tempt you to dive into something new—like a side hustle or passion project. The stars say: yes, but build it with structure. Avoid impulse spending today; you're more emotionally vulnerable to marketing than usual. Career: Your Vision Matters You may be the only one seeing the bigger picture today—and that's your power. A colleague might dismiss your idea at first, but don't water it down to fit their mold. Someone with influence may actually agree with your fresh perspective. Keep pitching. Health: Feed the Soul, Not Just the Body You're craving rest—but also inspiration. Balance the two by doing something artistic or spiritual. Maybe music, meditation, or journaling. Your body could feel drained, especially around the feet or legs, so wear something comfortable and stay hydrated. If you feel something's off—or incredibly right—listen to that inner whisper.
