CHICAGO, Nov. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- GTCR today announced the recent closing of its thirteenth equity fund, GTCR Fund XIII, with $7.5 billion of limited partner capital commitments.

Consistent with GTCR's Leaders Strategy™, GTCR Fund XIII will seek to partner with exceptional management leaders who have strong track records of equity value creation to identify, acquire and build market-leading companies in our core industry domains. GTCR and its CEO partners will continue to focus on companies in the Financial Services and Technology, Growth Business Services, Healthcare, and Technology, Media & Telecommunications sectors. As GTCR's funds have grown in size over the last several decades, so has the experience and caliber of the firm's management partners.
