What it saysLazard's published capital markets capabilities include private equity, credit and real asset fundraising together with secondaries and GP solutions. These services serve financial sponsors and institutional investors across private capital markets.
The firm has announced a definitive agreement to acquire Campbell Lutyens and create a unit called Lazard CL. The announced combination covers primary fundraising, secondary advisory and GP capital advisory across several private market strategies.
The official transaction overview states that closing remains subject to regulatory approvals and that the firms operate independently until closing. An acquisition announcement is therefore not treated here as evidence that the combined unit is already operating.
