Private Funds
Introduction
The Private Funds team works with a wide range of Private Equity firms providing comprehensive advisory and fundraising services to international private equity, real estate and environmental funds. The experienced team of professionals has backgrounds in private equity, investment banking, accounting and institutional private placement.
The core focus of the business is to uncover the most compelling investment teams in the chosen sectors, and to work with them to secure their continued growth and success. This includes advising on market practice, the competitive landscape, fund positioning and strategy as well as raising capital from a targeted group of institutional investors, expanding and internationalising the investor base. The team has assisted both established and emerging managers from a range of sectors (buy-out, life sciences, renewables and IT) and geographies.
Private Funds provides clients with an efficient and highly targeted fundraising process, allowing general partners (GPs) to focus on investing rather than fundraising. The team maintains extensive relationships and a thorough understanding of the investment preferences and processes with Investors and Gatekeepers principally across Western Europe, Scandinavia, Asia and North America, such as:
