KKR corporate asset transactions

Overview

KKR has engaged in significant asset transactions involving both service acquisitions and infrastructure divestments.

In October 2026, KKR agreed to acquire Gen II Fund Services for an enterprise value of $5.1 billion. The deal, intended to bolster KKR’s presence in private-market infrastructure, involves purchasing the fund administrator from Hg, General Atlantic, and other minority investors. The transaction is expected to close in 2027.

Shortly after, KKR entered into an agreement to sell Infinity Transportation, a railcar-leasing and intermodal equipment platform, to Ares Management for approximately $2.9 billion. Infinity Transportation manages roughly 50,000 railcars across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The sale is expected to complete in the first quarter of 2027.
