Private investments

High-quality assets in private markets, held through both direct investments and specialist managers.

We target high-quality assets in private markets, aiming to generate double-digit compound returns over the long term. These investments have been a compelling source of returns for our shareholders over time for two important reasons.  

Firstly, our extensive network and globally recognised brand open doors to compelling opportunities in private markets that are unavailable to most investors. We can access these investments directly, often as co-investments, or through our network of world-class specialist managers. 

Secondly, our close relationships allow us to structure our investments with capital preservation in mind. For example, through a preferred position in the capital structure of a company. This ensures additional protection for our shareholders’ capital.
