AAC Capital Partners is a private equity firm that formerly served as the private equity business unit of ABN AMRO Bank N.V. before being spun off.

AAC Capital Partners originated as ABN AMRO Capital, the private equity investment arm of the Dutch bank ABN AMRO. In July 2006, the firm's technology investments were transferred to Favonius Ventures. During the major restructuring and breakup of ABN AMRO in the late 2000s, the private equity business transitioned toward independence.

In 2008, as part of the divestment process following the acquisition of ABN AMRO by a consortium of banks, RFS Holdings sold a large portfolio of private equity interests managed by AAC Capital Partners. This portfolio included interests in 32 European companies and was sold to a consortium including Goldman Sachs, AlpInvest Partners, and the Canada Pension Plan for $1.5 billion through a secondary market transaction. Today, the firm operates as an independent private equity manager focusing on mid-market buyouts in Europe.
