TIPS ON SETTING UP A PRIVATE EQUITY FUND
—
It can be quite intimidating for new investors
to set up their own private equity fund. In
fact, even those that have been in industry
for years understand that the entire process
leading to profit can become more complex,
longer, and more expensive than expected.
But preparing in advance and keeping to
certain key pointers should aid immensely in
preventing these hitches, says investment
professional Tyler Tysdal.
It’s all about developing a defined approach or strategy, which begins with knowing if the
investment in question is in demand among investors and whether your team can manifest a
good track record in it. A lot of investors nowadays are on the lookout for co-investment
options, but you have to know clearly if such will be offered, to whom, and at what cost.
Secondly, you have to understand that
raising a new fund can take several years, so
the initial goal is to have sufficient funds to
make it through that period and ensure that
your team is on board for the long haul.
Gather a team of like-minded colleagues with
clearly assigned roles and who are willing to
work for years with one another, as your
group’s track record will convince investors of your capability to deliver positive results.
Keep in mind that your team must be keenly aware of the challenges inherent to the fund-
raising process; it can take a plethora of meetings before the influx of initial funds. Also,
consider closely the fund structure: is it going to be corporate, listed, unlisted, or a
partnership? While the investor type often dictates this, it would do you well to keep your
investment structure as simple as possible. Seeking advice from various industry experts at
the onset is key, explains Tyler Tysdal.
