Private Equity Secondary Fund Support

Private Equity Secondaries Support

At Acuity, we provide private equity secondary fund support on multi-fund deals, offering services such as deal evaluation, fund pricing, portfolio monitoring, and closing analytics.

Our expertise helps your investment team analyse pricing at a secondary fund of funds level, factoring in DCF models, NAV discounting, ESG criteria, investment restrictions, and more. We also update models for portfolio rebalancing, tracking hedges of public positions, consent requests, and unfunded commitment tracking.

Our portfolio monitoring and advisory services enable you to track fund performance periodically, conduct strategic reviews and prepare bespoke material for investor reporting with limited partners.

We also provide comprehensive end-to-end support with all types of general partner-led secondary transactions, including continuation funds, tender offers, strip sales and preferred equity solutions.
