    Transaction furthers collective value proposition in primary fund placement

    PITTSBURGH, May 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- PNC Bank today announced entry into a definitive agreement to acquire Aqueduct Capital Group, a placement agent focused on raising capital for private equity, private credit and real asset managers through its broad access to sophisticated, global pools of capital.

    Founded in 2003, Aqueduct has built a strong reputation advising its clients on a variety of fundraising solutions.

    "This acquisition is complementary to existing capital advisory capabilities provided through PNC's subsidiary Harris Williams and will enable us to expand our ability to serve the global capital needs of the private equity industry," said Michael D.

    The acquisition, which is subject to customary closing conditions, is expected to close in mid-summer, and the terms will not be disclosed.

    Keefe, Bruyette & Woods (KBW) advised Aqueduct on the transaction. Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz acted as legal counsel to PNC Bank and King & Spalding LLP acted as legal counsel to Aqueduct.
