Private Funds Group
Introduction
Matrix Private Funds Group was established in 2004 and provides comprehensive advisory and fundraising services to International Private Equity and Venture Capital funds.
The Private Funds Group is a highly experienced team of professionals with over 80 years of combined private equity, investment banking, accounting and institutional placement experience.
The core focus of the business is to uncover the most compelling Private Equity and Venture Capital investment teams in both Old and Emerging Europe, 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 Private Funds Group has extensive relationships with institutional investors – Fund of Funds, Pension Funds, Insurance Companies, Gatekeepers and Family Offices - and a thorough understanding of their investment preferences and processes. This enables the team to provide clients with an efficient and highly targeted fundraising process, allowing general partners to focus on investing rather than fundraising. Funds represented by our team have raised in excess of €1.0 billion from investors based in Europe, the Middle East and the United States.
With the growth of the secondary private equity market our team has developed bespoke advisory services to both fund managers looking to replace a sponsor and secondary purchasers of private equity assets. The team takes a proactive approach to sourcing limited partner interests including corporate venturing divestitures, orphaned portfolios, institutional team spin-outs and plain vanilla partnership positions.
