Partners Group will cap withdrawals from $16 billion U.S. fund, sources say

ZURICH, June 4 (Reuters) - Partners Group will limit withdrawals from a $16 billion U.S. fund, two sources familiar with the matter have told Reuters.

The Swiss asset manager on Thursday said repurchase requests had reached 6% of assets held in the Delaware-based fund, exceeding the 5% limit it allows each quarter.
