He brings significant direct buyout expertise, further strengthening Pantheon\u2019s origination and underwriting capabilities in GP-led secondaries, an area of increasing focus and specialization as the market continues to evolve.<\/p>

\n\u201cWe\u2019re excited to welcome Leif to our team. His appointment reflects our ongoing commitment to scaling our Private Equity Secondaries platform, particularly in the fast-evolving GP-led market,\u201d said Amyn Hassanally<\/b><\/a>, Global Head of Private Equity Secondaries at Pantheon<\/b>. \u201cWith over two decades of private equity investing experience, Leif\u2019s origination and underwriting capabilities, transaction judgment, and strong network of relationships across the European market will be highly valuable as we continue to grow the platform.

As the GP-led market continues to evolve, I believe Pantheon is well positioned through its scale, long-standing relationships, and investment expertise to capitalize on the opportunity ahead. I am excited to join the firm and contribute to the continued growth of the business.\u201d<\/p>

\nPrior to CVC Capital Partners, Lindb\u00e4ck held senior investing roles at Blackstone and Charterhouse. Across his career, he has invested across a range of transaction types, including control, minority and structured investments, and has worked extensively across the UK and continental Europe.<\/p>

The firm has committed over $28.2 billion across more than 480 secondaries investments,2<\/sup> spanning both LP-led and GP-led transactions. Pantheon continues to see strong momentum in and appetite for secondaries, driven by increasing demand for liquidity and portfolio management solutions from both investors and fund managers.<\/p>

\nThe firm\u2019s dedicated GP-led platform includes Pantheon Secondary Opportunities Fund II which, along with related vehicles, raised $1.1 billion in total commitments and closed in 2025<\/a>, reflecting continued investor demand for high-quality continuation vehicle opportunities. More broadly, Pantheon manages approximately $13.5 billion in assets3<\/sup> across its private equity secondaries funds, supporting its ability to lead complex GP-led transactions and partner with managers on tailored solutions.<\/p>
