Private equity strategy

Private equity is a potential source of enhanced returns for long investors seeking to access the illiquidity premium. Our ability to adapt quickly to changing market environments, capitalize on market dislocations and to share international best practices on processes attracts high net-worth investors.

  • Opportunistic Buyouts
  • Leverage Buyouts
  • Corporate Partner Buyouts

The excess rate of return that an investor may achieve above that of more liquid securities is known as the illiquidity premium. Investors generally expect a higher return as compensation for holding assets that are less liquid and therefore may be more difficult to convert into cash.

Investors typically gain access to private equity through fund structures or separate accounts, and less frequently through investments directly into operating companies.

Regular process

Buy: due diligence and careful investment selection are crucial for success in private equity investing. We take legal issues seriously and have a JV with one of the most prestigious.

Change: execute strategies made in conjunction with industry specialists.

Sell: private equity investments in aggregate have historically demonstrated excess returns greater than 500 basis points over 10-20 year periods.

Considerations

Investors should have a clear understanding of the dynamics of the industry and the unique attributes of private equity when investing in this segment of equities.

Purchases, or capital calls, are unpredictable and need to be effectively managed in the context of the aggregate portfolio.

An allocation to private equity should be based on an investor’s ability to identify and gain access to select managers, the investment horizon, and the portfolio’s liquidity needs.

We have consistently delivered competitive investment performance to clients while providing access to attractive investment opportunities in private markets. However, past performance does not guarantee future results.
