- Limited Partners prefer short-dated fund structures
- Intertrust launches guide for emerging fund managers, looking
to set up a private capital fund
Limited Partners (LPs) are investing more and more in first-time
funds because they are more entrepreneurial, better placed to
deliver specialist strategies and more likely to produce higher
returns than more established firms. This is according to a new
study commissioned by Intertrust, a global leader in providing
expert administrative services to clients operating and investing
in the international business environment.
Almost half (46%) of LPs say they are drawn to new managers
because they are nimbler and more opportunistic while over a third
(36%) say they are better able to produce more focused strategies
where competition from other funds is relatively
weak. For example, 47% of investors believe that
emerging fund managers are better than established General Partners
(GPs) at leveraging emerging sectors
