The secondaries market is rapidly expanding, with sponsors and their investors increasingly exploring alternative methods of obtaining liquidity in an ever more challenging environment. 

Our global Secondaries team brings deep experience in this market. We are pleased to share details of a selection of the significant transactions our team has closed in 2024 so far. This strong performance builds on an extremely active 12-18 months for the practice; in 2023, our global team advised on 60+ completed deals with an aggregate value of US$28.5bn. 

"Attitudes toward General Partner (GP)-led transactions have evolved from being seen as a fallback for struggling assets to recognizing their value for managers seeking liquidity, new capital, or strategic investors. As the GP-led market matures, it will be interesting to observe if GP-led transactions remain a distinct process from buyout transactions or if they become more ‘M&A’ like in nature. Meanwhile, with evolving economic conditions and rising inflation, demand for Limited Partner (LP) acquisitions remains high." – Ed Harris (London) and Adam Brown (Northern Virginia), Co-heads of Secondaries
