NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Veritas Capital (“Veritas”), a leading technology investor, today announced $15.3 billion in total capital raised across The Veritas Capital Fund IX (“Fund IX”) and related investment vehicles.1 The close comes amid a pronounced slowdown in private equity fundraising, as many firms face extended timelines and reduced allocations. Securing $15.3 billion in this environment underscores investor conviction in Veritas’ differentiated strategy. The capital raised marks a meaningful increase relative to the Firm’s predecessor Flagship Fund, with Fund IX 40% larger than Fund VIII, which was itself 68% larger than Fund VII, reflecting sustained investor confidence in the strength and performance of the platform.
Veritas invests in companies that deliver essential software, data, and technology-enabled services across aerospace & defense, national security, healthcare, education, infrastructure, energy, and financial technology – sectors where demand is driven by regulation, public policy, and innovation priorities rather than short-term economic cycles.
Since closing Fund IX, Veritas has continued to deploy across both its Flagship strategy and its Vantage strategy, which invests in the large, fragmented middle-market. The Firm recently announced the acquisition of GHX, through its Flagship strategy, expanding its presence in healthcare supply chain software and data-driven solutions. The transaction included significant co-investment participation from global institutional partners, reinforcing continued demand for exposure to Veritas’ platform. Through its Vantage strategy, Veritas acquired MetroStar, an AI-enabled digital transformation provider serving U.S. defense and national security agencies. Vantage expands Veritas’ ability to serve as a differentiated partner to smaller, growing businesses, bringing scaled resources and deep sector expertise to accelerate growth.
Across the portfolio, Veritas-backed companies continue to secure landmark mandates. Most recently, Peraton was awarded a multi-billion-dollar contract supporting a White House-led initiative to modernize the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration’s aging air traffic control systems.
“In a constrained fundraising market, investors are allocating capital selectively,” said Ramzi Musallam, CEO and Managing Partner. “Our ability to raise $15.3 billion underscores the strength of our platform and our investors’ conviction in our ability to outperform. We deploy capital where modernization is structural and complexity creates durable opportunity, positioning us to generate sustained returns across market cycles.”
The Firm has ranked among the top ten private equity firms globally in the HEC-Dow Jones Large Buyout Performance Ranking for four consecutive years and is one of only three private equity firms out of over 695 measured to achieve this distinction during that period. Ramzi Musallam was also recently named a Wash100 Award recipient for the eleventh consecutive year, recognizing his continued leadership within the government and technology ecosystem.2
