IFC to invest in pvt equity fund

Our Bureau

Chennai, April 11 The International Finance Corporation plans to invest in Zephyr Peacock India Fund II, an India-dedicated private equity fund that is seeking to raise $75 million.

The fund will make equity and equity-related investments in growth capital opportunities in high-growth small and medium enterprises, including those located outside the main metros — a relatively under-served segment of the market, according to information on IFC’s Web site.

IFC proposes an equity investment of lesser than $15 million or 20 per cent of the fund’s total committed capital. The fund is a Cayman Islands-exempted limited partnership and will operate primarily through one or more subsidiaries formed in Mauritius. The fund manager is based in Bangalore and New York.
