Attractiveness of Secondary Opportunities for Investors
The Manager believes that secondary investments can form an important element of a diversified private equity portfolio:
•
Secondaries complement investment portfolio construction: a secondary investment program can be designed to
complement a primary investment program by filling the gaps in an investors investment portfolio and providing
exposure to older vintages or different strategies or geographies.
•
Secondaries provide the opportunity to pursue an attractive risk-reward profile.

More specifically, the Manager believes that secondary investments offer the potential for an attractive risk-reward profile
due to:
■ Pricing flexibility: capacity to re-price existing assets to reflect current performance and economic environment and to
opportunistically target price inefficiencies resulting from market dislocation and supply-demand imbalances in the
private equity market.
•
Mitigation of blind pool risk: a secondary manager is typically able to analyze existing assets and will therefore have
greater visibility on cash-flows.
■ Mitigation of J-curve effect: typically secondary investments are drawn down more quickly and return capital more
quickly than primary funds and therefore suffer less from the J-curve effect.
Secondary Market Investment Opportunity
Introduction
Fundamentally, private equity assets — when held through funds, funds of funds, feeder funds or other similar holding
structures - are illiquid investments with long holding periods (typically 10 to 12 years for fund interests) during which
time investors have no, or limited, rights to liquidity and investors receive limited information about the performance of
the underlying portfolio companies. M investor in such a structure that requires liquidity prior to the sale of the
underlying assets by the fund has limited alternatives to selling the interest on the secondary market.
A range of dynamics in the private equity industry, such as an evolving regulatory environment, ongoing limited partner
portfolio management becoming standard and a rising number of GP-led Secondaries, can create attractive opportunities
to purchase private equity assets on a secondary basis.
