PAI Partners wraps up third fund with FTE disposal

The latest in a string of exits by the French firm comes as it raises its first fund since a 2009 management coup

Parisian buyout house PAI Partners has wrapped up its third fund at three-times net cost after its most recent exit, making it one of Europe’s best-performing funds for its vintage.

PAI has agreed to sell FTE automotive, which makes hydraulic clutch actuation systems for passenger cars and commercial vehicles, to Boston-based private equity firm Bain Capital for an undisclosed sum, according to a statement from the French firm.
