Paris, September 4, 2026 – Omada surpasses $110 million in fundraising for OTEF USA I and completes its first eight investments in the United States

Omada Investment Managers (“Omada”) announces that its Omada Talent Equity Fund – USA I (“OTEF USA I”) surpassed the $110 million fundraising threshold in June 2026. The fund has already completed eight investments in investment funds managed by U.S. private equity firms operating in the small and lower middle market. As of June 30, 2026, these investments provide OTEF USA I with exposure to twenty companies. The fund is targeting a final closing by the end of 2026.

This momentum demonstrates Omada’s ability to deploy capital rapidly while leveraging its network of U.S. fund managers to access funds that are open to a limited number of investors.

The U.S. market remains the world’s leading private equity market. Within this universe, the small and lower middle market benefits from the depth of the U.S. entrepreneurial ecosystem and offers significant value creation potential.

In this highly fragmented segment, the selection of investment teams is a key driver of performance. Access to the best managers, however, is often more challenging than identifying them: many managers raise consistently oversubscribed funds and significantly restrict access for new investors.

This is precisely where the members of the Omada team have built their expertise over more than twenty years. With a regular presence in the United States, the team develops long-term relationships with these managers, often well before they launch their fundraising processes.

This on-the-ground presence and these longstanding relationships enable Omada to access funds that are rarely open to new investors without pre-existing relationships with the management teams.

Since its launch, OTEF USA I has built a diversified portfolio combining investments in U.S. private equity funds based notably in California, Florida and Texas, and expects to complete its first co-investments alongside these partner managers in the coming weeks.

Each investment results from a particularly rigorous proprietary selection process. Despite the portfolio’s young age, several investments have already generated their first distributions, illustrating the strategy’s rapid deployment and the initial positive developments across the portfolio.

According to Nizar Chayeb, Partner at Omada:

“The U.S. private equity market remains one of the deepest markets in the world. We focus in particular on experienced investment teams that have launched their own firms after building strong track records at leading platforms. Our added value lies in our ability to identify them at a very early stage and build lasting relationships based on trust. This approach enables us to access consistently oversubscribed funds that are largely closed to new investors.”

Paul-Philippe Bernier, Partner at Omada, adds:

“With eight investments completed, OTEF USA I already has exposure to around twenty companies. The portfolio’s initial developments are very encouraging, and several investments have already generated their first distributions.² This momentum reinforces our conviction in the quality of the teams we have selected and the relevance of our strategy. We would like to thank our longstanding investors for their continued trust and are delighted by the growing interest in OTEF USA I among new partners as we approach the fund’s final closing.”
