6 reasons to invest in Private Equity with Altaroc

While popular with institutional investors and wealthy families, Private Equity remains a little-known asset class.
Reason 1

Private Equity is one of the best-performing asset classes, both historically and over time

Private Equity is an asset class favoured by institutional investors and the largest family funds.
+16.4% over 10 years for industry, vs. 6.30% for public markets*.

Positive yields even during recession

Like equities, the Private Equity market is cyclical.

Nevertheless, the lower volatility of this asset class, compared with listed markets, can be explained by a combination of factors:
Undertaking to retain
In Private Equity, the minimum holding period is 10 years. This gives the managers time to support the underlying companies in creating value.
the positive impact of managers
The managers support the underlying companies by contributing their sectoral and operational expertise to help them grow and generate value.
flexibility
Managers choose the best time to dispose of assets, depending on the company's situation, the market in which it operates and the economic climate.  
A 2015 study by France Invest and Oliver Gottschlag (professor at HEC) concluded that the probability of losing 25% of your stake in a Private Equity portfolio is less than 0.5%.

Reason 3

Huge differences in performance between Private Equity managers

Average performance of Private Equity Growth & buyout worldwide

The best managers are often hard to find.

Hard-to-identify fund managers
Most of them are based outside France, and are very difficult to access.
Very high fund entry fees for private clients
Depending on the fund, minimum tickets start at $10M and can reach much higher sums.
These managers' funds are generally oversubscribed.
Historical institutional investors reinvest large amounts almost systematically, leaving very little room for new investors.
These managers have no interest in targeting private clients directly
Regulatory constraints and the complexity of fund-raising and administration are real obstacles for these fund managers, who are also looking for investors capable of investing in several funds.
