The GPCA team specializes in providing strategic advice to private markets asset managers at the management company level (commonly referred to as General Partners, or “GPs”).
For a typical private markets manager, the management company (a.k.a the GP) is the entity that collects management and incentive fees in return for providing investment management services. The value of the management company is a function of (i) fee income, and (ii) the operating expenses associated with running a private markets firm (mostly, the cost of employing investment professionals).
Typical advisory mandates of the GPCA team include the following transaction types:
GP Stakes: Minority sale of equity ownership in a GP
Control M&A: Majority or 100% acquisition involving a GP
Non-dilutive financing: Preferred equity and debt instruments raised by a GP
Strategy advisory: Supporting GPs with succession planning (i.e., supporting the sale / purchase of equity by Founders / Next-Generation leadership), valuations (potentially unrelated to a specific transaction), and broader strategic planning exercises (often in conjunction with CL’s Primary Fundraising, and Secondaries Advisory verticals)
