We are honored KPS was recognized by PitchBook as the top-performing fund series in the Buyout Megafunds category in its 2024 Global Manager Performance Score League Tables (published July 28, 2025).

We believe this recognition reflects the strength of our long-tenured, world-class investment team and our disciplined strategy of seeing value where others do not, buying right, and making businesses better. We are proud to be recognized for our investment performance across economic, financial, and industrial cycles over decades.

PitchBook’s analysis is based on a data-driven review of private capital fund performance across thousands of funds.  The Buyout Megafunds category includes 68 global fund families with most recent fund sizes of at least $5 billion.
