Fremont Partners Changes Name, Preps Fund

Fremont Partners, a San Francisco-based private equity firm focused on the middle-markets, is changing its name to Calera Capital. The firm was originally named after cornerstone limited partner Fremont Group, but its $920 million third fund had more than 30 LPs. The name change comes as Fremont/Calera is gearing up to raise its fourth fund. www.caleracapital.com
