Private Corner launches Blue Owl GP Stakes Strategy

Private Corner launches Blue Owl GP Stakes Strategy: a unique opportunity for private investors to access the core of global private markets growth

Paris, September 22, 2025 – Private Corner, the French digital asset management company dedicated to private markets and tailored for wealth management professionals, announces the launch of the Blue Owl GP Stakes Strategy. This innovative investment solution offers its third-party distributors (IFAs, Family Offices and private banks) and their high-net-worth clients exclusive access to a strategy focused on acquiring equity stakes in leading global alternative asset managers. A first of its kind in France, this strategy combines stable cash flows, unique diversification, and long-term value creation.

Bringing Institutional GP Stakes to Private Wealth

The Blue Owl GP Stakes Strategy will primarily invest in Blue Owl’s large-cap and mid-cap GP Stakes strategies. Blue Owl is a globally recognized leader in alternative asset management and the market reference for GP Stakes investments. The fund will also opportunistically invest in continuation vehicles dedicated to Blue Owl’s GP Stakes.

The GP Stakes strategy consists of acquiring minority equity interests in top-tier alternative asset managers, with the aim of capturing:

  • Recurring, predictable management fee revenues

  • Structural growth of the alternative investment market

  • Diversification benefits from exposure to a broad mix of leading and complementary managers

The target portfolio will include stakes in 30 to 40 high-quality General Partners (GPs) operating across mid- and large-cap segments globally. Together, these firms manage over 200 funds, offering indirect exposure to more than 150 private funds and 2,000 portfolio companies across various strategies such as buyout, private credit, and real assets. Selected GPs are characterized by strong profitability, high margins, a proven track record, and rigorous governance.

In a volatile market environment, GP Stakes stands out as a resilient, diversified strategy with strong return potential.

With this launch, Private Corner reaffirms its mission: to be the preferred partner of Independent Financial Advisors, family offices, and private banks in providing access to institutional-grade private market opportunities.

A Hybrid Approach to Private Markets

The Blue Owl GP Stakes Strategy offers a hybrid approach that blends the strengths of:

  • Private equity – for long-term value creation

  • Private credit – for predictable cash flows and downside protection

  • Secondaries – for enhanced liquidity and mitigation of the J-curve effect

This solution is tailored for investors seeking regular income, capital preservation, and exposure to top-tier global players in the alternative investment universe.

Investing in Leading Private Market Firms

The fund acquires minority interests (10% to 30%) in selected GPs, providing access to a share of their revenue streams, including management fees, carried interest, and GP commitment income. These cash flows are stable, diversified, and largely uncorrelated with traditional markets, leading to early and consistent distributions and a reduced J-curve effect.

“In today’s increasingly complex environment, wealth managers are looking for solutions that combine performance, diversification, and resilience. The GP Stakes strategy delivers on all three fronts: it provides global exposure to a unique and fast-growing ecosystem of asset managers, while mitigating risks through recurring and near-term cash flows. Our partnership with Blue Owl, a global leader in alternatives, reflects our ambition: to support our partners in building diversified and sustainable allocations for their clients. We believe that giving private investors access to such an innovative and differentiated strategy marks a major milestone in the construction of institutional-grade private market portfolios.” Estelle Dolla, President of Private Corner

The subscription period for the Blue Owl GP Stakes Strategy is open until March 2027.
