Last week, our team participated in SuperReturn’s 2024 SuperInvestor Conference, where we exchanged insights and connected with leading innovators and decision-makers across private markets. Head of Secondaries Nicholas Lawler participated in the Secondaries Summit, where he joined an onstage panel about the proliferation of mid-market GP-led transactions. During the session, Nick discussed how this trend is leading to smaller transaction sizes, smaller syndicates and more exclusivity, highlighting the importance of having strong pre-existing relationships and the capital to lead and structure deals. He also shared how the continuation vehicle market has split into three main segments: fund wrap-ups, mid-life complexity and trophy assets. At Churchill, we are mainly focused on trophy assets, which are high-performing businesses that a private equity sponsor could sell, but opts to hold onto for longer to keep growing value. Typically, there are one or two of these per fund. 

I enjoyed the discussion at #FundForum’s private markets panel session alongside Stephanie Drescher, Robert Mullane, George Szemere, CAIA and Marco Bizzozero. It was interesting to talk about the benefits and increasing adoption of private markets by wealth investors, and our views on portfolio composition, investor education and innovation in product structures. #KKR, #fundforum, #privateequity, #alternativeinvestments #privatemarkets
