2 solutions for investing in unlisted assets
By subscribing to the Private Corner offer, private equity investors benefit from a double investment choice:
The turnkey, open-architecture option
We identify investment funds that are in the process of being raised, or are about to be raised, and offer a rigorous and differentiated selection of complementary funds. Note that these funds, whose minimum entry ticket usually restricts them to institutional investors and family offices, become, thanks to the platform, accessible to other private investors likely to invest in private equity, starting from subscriptions of 100,000 euros.
Our management company gathers individual requests from our partners' clients to invest directly in feeder investment funds. Our partners, who are professionals in wealth management or private banking, can then offer their clients access to the largest private equity funds, and invest indirectly in companies that are highly diversified in terms of type (start-up, SME, ETI), sector and geographical location.
The tailor-made option
For professionals looking for a specific unlisted asset investment strategy for their investor clients, Private Corner's private equity investment platform and expertise make it easy to structure and manage a fully dedicated, tailor-made investment vehicle.
This option meets the needs of both venture capital management companies and family offices looking for a streamlined approach to the distribution of these unlisted assets.
The private equity investment process
Access to private equity offered by the private equity platform is a form of investment in companies that are not listed on a stock exchange, i.e. companies that do not go public on a regulated listed market. In our example, institutional investors, business angels or unlisted asset investment funds, acquire shares in a private company with the aim of making a long-term profit by increasing the company's value.
There are generally two main phases in the private equity cycle:
Investment phase
Investors (such as private equity funds) look for companies with strong growth potential, solid performance or turnaround opportunities. They invest their capital in these companies by acquiring shares, usually in partnership with the company's management.
Divestment phase
After a holding period, generally of a few years, investors seek to realize a return on their investment by selling their shares or taking the company public (IPO) if possible. Exit can also take the form of a sale to another company (M&A) or to another investor.
Private equity is different from the public stock market, where company shares are freely traded. Companies that benefit from private equity investment generally have a private ownership structure, meaning that the company's shares are not available to the general public.
Private equity is often associated with a more active involvement of investors in the management of the company, as they seek to add value by contributing their expertise, their network of contacts and by implementing growth strategies. This active involvement can be achieved through boards of directors, management committees or close discussions with company executives.
This fully digitalized investment platform is offered by Private Corner, a Paris-based independent asset management company, whose ambition is to institutionalize access to private equity and investment funds in unlisted assets through its private equity platform.
What are the risks for private equity investors?
Subscribing to investment funds offered by our private equity platform presents a number of specific risks, despite its potential for high returns. Here are the main risks to be taken into account by investors:
- Risk of capital loss: private equity investments are subject to a high risk of partial or total loss of the capital invested, particularly if the company in which you invest goes bankrupt or underperforms.
- Illiquidity: private equity investments are generally illiquid and can be difficult to sell quickly. Private equity investors often have to commit to a long time horizon, sometimes several years, before they can realize their investment.
- Valuation risk: correctly valuing an unlisted company can be difficult due to a lack of transparency and comparable data. This can lead to uncertainty as to the real value of the investment.
- Concentration risk: private equity investments are often concentrated in a small number of companies, which increases the risk if one or more of these companies fail.
- Leverage risk: private equity deals often use high levels of leverage to increase potential returns. This can also increase risk, particularly in periods of economic volatility or credit crunch.
- Operational risk: the companies in which private equity funds invest may face operational challenges, such as changes in management, production problems or market developments, which can affect their performance.
- Dependence on management: the success of a private equity investment often depends on the quality of the company's management team and the ability of fund managers to add value.
To mitigate these risks, private equity investors need to carry out thorough due diligence, diversify their investments and adopt a long-term perspective. Working with experienced and reputable fund managers can also help navigate the complex private equity landscape.
