Our Managing Partner, Doug Cruikshank, will be featured at SuperReturn North America on a panel entitled "Pathways to liquidity: The Evolution of Fund Finance". The discussion will cover the relevant questions GPs and LPs are asking as they navigate today's private markets landscape including: How are GPs using fund finance and NAV loans to facilitate AUM growth and source liquidity for portfolio companies? How can managers use NAV lending on behalf of LPs to unlock liquidity? What are the questions investors are asking when structuring NAV loans? Are they becoming more comfortable with leverage at the company level? Who are the key providers of debt and how do they get comfortable with the lending risks? How big is the market going to get? We encourage everyone to come and learn about the evolution of fund finance. #FundFinance #NAVFinancing #NAVLoan #NAVLoans #ManagementCompanyFinancing #MANCOLoans #PortfolioFinance #Leverage #NAV #Liquidity #ValueCreation #PrivateEquity #PrivateCredit #GrowthEquity #PrivateMarkets
