British Growth Partnership
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what estimate he has made of the level of private investment that the British Growth Partnership Fund I will leverage from institutional partners; and by what date he expects the Fund to achieve that target.
Answered by Blair McDougall
The British Growth Partnership Fund I is anticipated to achieve a first close of the fund of £200 million by the end of March 2026. This amount will consist predominantly of private investment from UK pension funds.
The Department expects that following the first close, the British Growth Partnership will raise further capital in advance of the final close of the investment vehicle. The level of additional investment from pension funds will depend on market conditions at the time.
