Discover the long-term approach to diversifying investments

Our expertise

With experience in private equity investing since 1997, we provide you with an opportunity to invest via closed-end fund-of-fund strategies, individually customized mandates as well as bespoke solutions that invest in primaries, secondaries and co-investments. More recently, the business has expanded into a dedicated open-end solution, all geared towards meeting the needs of institutional investors such as pension funds, insurances, sovereigns and family offices.
