Private Equity Investments

Venture beyond
public markets.

Private market investments form the bedrock of many institutional and high-net-worth portfolios. Eligible investors can use private equity and venture capital to diversify, potentially reduce volatility and look for superior risk-adjusted returns.

Our due-diligence method.
Tried and tested.

As private equity purists, our investment team is reassuringly hard to please. Through our rigorous due diligence process, we scrutinise hundreds of private market funds annually. Yet, only 5% meet our exacting standards.

Drawing on 200 years of collective expertise, our team ensures investments are selected according to YHT Investors's high standards for our customers to make independent investment decisions.

Fund managers

We look for fund managers with identifiably strong know-how and experience, who have proven that they are dependable, trustworthy stewards of long-term capital commitments, with clear competitive advantages.

Strategy

We assess the investment strategy in terms of clarity, consistency, effectiveness, and replicability.

Team structure

We invest not only in funds, but in long-term relationships with the fund managers and their teams, looking for quality, continuity, and alignment.

Performance

We look for consistent risk-adjusted performance throughout economic cycles as well as clear ties between return generation and the fund’s investment strategy.

Fund Approval

Only 5% of the funds make it into YHT Investors.

Terms and conditions

Among other areas, we look for terms to be transparent and create ample alignment of interest between the fund manager and LPs.

We're in this together.

YHT Investors pools commitments from individual investors in our independent Luxembourg-based feeder funds, which invest directly into the underlying target funds. This structure makes it possible to bring the minimum investments down to a level that makes sense for individual investors — and ensures your capital is safe and secure.

Capital calls
and distributions.

Investing with YHT Investors requires less starting capital than you may think. Usually, you put down 25 percent of the full commitment up front – the rest is spread out via capital calls over the fund’s lifecycle. You may also receive distributions which could further reduce your net cash outlay. What's more, YHT Investors manages all the admin and cash flow for you.

Secondary market.
‍A path to early liquidity.

As the first platform to offer a digital secondary market for private market feeder funds, YHT Investors makes investing in private equity more flexible with institutional-style liquidity. We've teamed up with Lexington Partners to offer the YHT Investors secondary market: it enables eligible investors to buy and sell stakes in funds before the lifecycle completes — bringing new liquidity to the asset class.
