Maturity of fund interests
The mid-sized fund segment of the market is further differentiated through the maturity of fund interests targeted.
Some strategies target interests in immature buyout funds which are between 15% and 50% drawn down. These
strategies do a primary style analysis of the blind pool portion of the portfolio - focusing on the capability of the Fund
Sponsor to invest the remaining commitments well, alongside a secondary pricing analysis of the existing assets.
Complementary to this. some secondaries funds target interests in Fund Sponsors that are considered by their primary
fund investment businesses to be of high quality on the basis that these interests, even if bought at close to par value,
represent a compelling purchase.
In contrast to these approaches, the Fund will focus only on mature fund interests (at least 50% drawn, typically over
80% drawn). This approach provides the Manager with visibility on the underlying assets and reduces reliance on the
Fund Sponsor to select strong investment opportunities (reduces 'blind pool risk').
