AltList: Private Markets Week of Sep 9, 2026

Private markets week of Sep 9, 2026 opens on secondaries heat and SPV clarity. CVC Secondary Partners closed Secondary Opportunities Fund VI at $10B. The same window still dumped AI mega-rounds and a single-asset continuation vehicle into the feed. If an SPV sits in your book, can you still find the line: vehicle, underlying company, fees, and cash dates? This AltList is the operator scan, then a Raziel close on syndicate SPV tracking.

Rounds

Cognition AI. Reuters (Sep 8, 2026) reported a $2B Series E at a $48B valuation, led by Andreessen Horowitz and Accel with Founders Fund, General Catalyst, and Avenir participating (ARR cited from $492M toward about $900M since May). Keep cost basis and the original wire date; do not overwrite the SAFE or preferred row. See how to track SAFE notes after you wire.

Harvey. Artificial Lawyer (Sep 9, 2026) reported a $550M raise at a $15.5B valuation, co-led by Diffusion and Lightspeed Venture Partners, plus the acquisition of Guardrails AI (terms undisclosed; team joining Harvey product and engineering). Post the new mark on the existing instrument; treat the acquisition as a separate corporate event unless your docs say otherwise.

Mistral AI. Bloomberg (Sep 8, 2026) reported a raise of about €3B ($3.5B) at a valuation above €21B, Samsung-led, with Scaleup Europe Fund and PSG as co-leads, versus a prior €11.7B mark. Log the close you received docs for. Do not invent FX or ownership from the headline alone.

Stoke Space. TechCrunch (Sep 8, 2026) reported an initial close of a $1B Series E led by Point72 Ventures and Spark Capital, about $2.3B raised to date, Pathfinder early 2027, and Nova Block 2 around 2029. Hardware timelines slip. Log the close packet, not the roadmap slide.

TrueBridge Secondaries II. TrueBridge Capital Partners (PR Newswire, Sep 8, 2026) announced the final close of TrueBridge Secondaries II at $508M in commitments, after Secondaries I closed at $230M in 2024. The firm said the fund buys venture fund interests and direct company secondaries. Keep fund-interest rows separate from company-lot rows. Do not collapse both into one “venture” cell.

PennantPark credit continuation. Bloomberg (Sep 8, 2026) reported PennantPark raised $745M for a private credit continuation fund, with Pantheon as lead buyer, drawing first-lien assets from seven funds and including fresh capital used in part to repay debt. Continuation capital is still a secondary-shaped event for LPs who rolled, cashed, or sat out. Attach the election packet. Split rolled vs cashed lots.

M&A and exits

Carrick / Saviynt continuation vehicle. ABF Journal (Sep 1, 2026) and Carrick’s announcement reported a single-asset continuation vehicle for Saviynt with about $600M in commitments, Coller Capital lead and HSBC Asset Management co-lead, plus about $255M of new capital into Saviynt tied to the Series B final close and an employee tender. Existing LPs could roll or take liquidity. Map old interest to the new vehicle and keep parent rows until docs say otherwise. See how to track SPV positions.

Palo Alto Networks / Console. TechCrunch (Sep 2, 2026) reported Palo Alto Networks acquiring Console for about $500M in cash and stock (official terms undisclosed). Console had raised $29M; PitchBook’s pre-deal mark was cited at $157M. For holders, settlement is the event: cash, stock, escrow, and any leftover. Split sold or converted lots. Do not delete the original row until the documents say the instrument is gone.

Bridgepoint Direct Lending II / Pantheon continuation. Kirkland & Ellis (Sep 8, 2026) reported advising Bridgepoint Credit on a secondary where a newly formed continuation vehicle acquired about €1.2B of commitments from Bridgepoint Direct Lending II, led by Pantheon with Bridgepoint Credit remaining manager. Map old fund commitment to new vehicle, fees, and expected realization path. Parent row stays until docs say the old interest is gone.

Other alts

CVC Secondary Opportunities Fund VI. CVC (Sep 3, 2026) announced the final close of SOF VI with $10B in aggregate commitments (prior SOF funds: $5.8B in 2023, $2.7B in 2019), mid-market LP portfolios and GP-led deals, 200+ LPs with about half of capital from new SOF investors. Bloomberg (Sep 3, 2026) called it CVC’s largest secondaries pool to date. A buyer’s fund close is not your cash event. Log only interests, calls, and distributions on vehicles you hold.

Secondary stock lots. When a tender or bilateral sale moves only part of a position, keep a sold slice and a leftover quantity on the same cost basis. Raziel’s secondary stock lot tracking page is the ledger shape for that split. Do not delete the parent SAFE or preferred row when only part of the position moved.

Continuation vehicles and SPV mapping. Saviynt’s CV, Bridgepoint/Pantheon, and CVC’s raise are the same signal: more nested structures between you and the operating company. For each SPV or secondary lot keep issuer, instrument, ownership %, fees/carry, and the PDF. Map vehicles to underlying names in syndicate SPV tracking.

Raziel close

When secondaries capital floods in, nested SPV interests get messier, not cleaner. The job is the line: vehicle, underlying company, fees, carry, and cash dates.
