Co-Investment
Direct LP investment alongside a GP into a specific deal, usually fee-free or with reduced economics.
Co-invest blends primary fund returns with single-deal exposure at a lower blended cost. The trade-offs are speed (decisions in days), concentration risk, and the need for in-house deal underwriting capability.
A disciplined co-invest program requires clear allocation criteria, a fast IC process, and tight tracking of pipeline conversion against capacity.
