Why EQT ranks #7

Seventh place follows a review of this ranking by someone with industry knowledge. It is a judgement, not a measurement. EQT’s postings give it “€354 billion in total assets under management (€195 billion in fee-generating assets under management) as of 30 September 2026”, across private capital, infrastructure, real estate and secondaries. Its board had no junior investing role in the United States on the date read, so nothing about its US junior hiring could be verified.
