Sovereign Wealth Fund Sues PE Firm over Continuation Vehicle Process

On November 26, 2025, the sovereign wealth fund, Abu Dhabi Investment Council (ADIC), filed a lawsuit in the Chancery Court of Delaware against Energy & Minerals Group LP and several affiliate private investment funds (collectively EMG).
