PICTON Investments launches private equity fund with specialized Canadian asset manager Morningside Capital
On February 2, 2026, Picton Mahoney Asset Management ("PICTON Investments") announced the launch of the PICTON Morningside Private Equity Fund, the firm's first private equity solution.
PICTON Morningside Private Equity Fund provides Canadian accredited investors with ongoing access to private equity through an open-end solution focusing on one of private equity's most attractive and compelling sub-strategies through a dedicated structured investment vehicle managed by Morningside Capital Inc. ("Morningside").
The fund’s strategy focuses on "trophy asset" general partner ("GP")-led secondary investments, a highly selective segment of the private equity market characterized by mature, high-quality companies with established operating histories and meaningful remaining value-creation potential. The strategy will seek to capture private equity alpha, driven by underwriting discipline, asset quality, and manager selectivity rather than broad market private equity exposure.
