About SWEN CAPITAL PARTNERS
SWEN Capital Partners is a French responsible investor in private markets with €13.2 billion of assets under management as of December 2024, headquartered in Paris. Founded in 2015 from the combination of OFI AM private markets activities with Aréas Vie team, the firm is majority-owned by Aéma Groupe (the mutualist group resulting from the merger of Macif, Aésio and AGPM) and operates across fund-of-funds, co-investments and direct strategies with a strong responsible investment thesis embedded across the platform.
Investment thesis
SWEN deploys capital across complementary strategies including fund-of-funds positions in European mid-market private equity, direct co-investments alongside lead sponsors, infrastructure equity with energy transition focus, and impact-themed vehicles addressing climate and societal challenges. The platform allocates across sectors including Energy, AgTech, FoodTech, Mobility and Industrials with selective exposure to E-commerce. The responsible investment framework, articulated through ESG criteria integrated across origination, due diligence and portfolio monitoring, distinguishes SWEN from generalist private markets investors and aligns the platform with mutualist limited partner expectations.
Recent activity
Recent realised exits include Optoscale (AgTech, 2025) and Waga Energy (energy, 2025), reflecting selective distribution activity across the direct co-investment portfolio. The platform tracks 5 funds and 13 active portfolio companies, with the bulk of AUM deployed through fund-of-funds positions providing diversified exposure across European private markets rather than direct ownership. Detailed buyer names and multiple data available on Pro at €29/month.
