Private Markets investment solutions

Our clients trust us to invest £52 billion* on their behalf, making us one of the largest private markets’ investment managers in the UK. With a focus on income-producing investments, we invest both in debt and equity across the risk/return spectrum. We’re active investors in assets spanning the commercial, operational and residential property sectors, as well as real estate, infrastructure, corporate and alternative debt. 

We manage private market strategies on behalf of a wide range of UK and overseas clients, including DB and DC corporate pension schemes, local government pension schemes, insurance companies, wealth managers and retail investors. 

Responsible investing – we invest in long-term assets that seek to benefit society

Our purpose is to create a better future through responsible investing. We strive to achieve this through a strong sense of partnership with our clients, working together to achieve positive long-term outcomes. 

Our approach to responsible investing stems from, and helps inform, our parent group’s vision for inclusive capitalism, which seeks to share the benefits of economic growth with as many people as possible. To help achieve this, we invest in long-term assets that benefit everyone – from housing to renewable energy. 

Seeking to deliver positive, environmental and societal impact for our clients

With almost 50 years of experience behind us, we draw on unrivalled expertise, enduring relationships and one of the most extensive networks in the industry. Our size and influence mean we’re well placed to identify and access what, we believe, are the most attractive market deals.

As part of our approach to inclusive capitalism, we aim to deliver positive, environmental and societal impact for our clients.

Investing in private markets comes with the potential to deliver predictable, stable income streams, capital growth and, in some instances, robust protection against inflation. Because private markets have proved to be relatively resilient in times of market volatility, we believe they can also help to achieve attractive levels of diversification as part of an overall portfolio.

Our equity and debt investments in South Wales are focused on delivering major social and economic benefits both to the public and private sectors, working in partnership to unlock potential growth in the UK economy. This collaborative approach showcases inclusive capitalism at its best, delivering jobs, housing, infrastructure and economic growth:
