Hedge fund managers are increasingly offering co-investment opportunities to strategic clients. Translating the “idea” of a co-investment into a practical arrangement that works from a legal, regulatory and operational standpoint requires consideration of a wide range of factors.

In this focussed Hedge Fund Vista special, we shared our market-leading knowledge on the structuring and establishment of co-investment arrangements, including the following questions:

  • What is a co-investment? What are the most common structures for co-investment?
  • What are the differences between a standalone co-investment and a co-investment platform?
  • What are the key factors to consider when structuring a co-investment?
    • What approach should managers take on commercial terms such as liquidity arrangements, fees and allocations of expenses to deal with a wide range of investment opportunities?
    • Which closed ended features (e.g. capital commitment / drawdown structures) can be relevant to co-investment structures and when should they be implemented?
    • How can managers offer these bespoke arrangements whilst also managing the additional complexity?
