Private Equity & VC FAQ
What is the minimum investment for private equity or venture capital deals?
Minimum commitments vary by opportunity. VC co-investments typically start at $250,000 USD, while PE buyout co-investments generally require $500,000 USD or more. We structure SPVs to provide access at these thresholds.
How does Growth Capital source deal flow?
Our deal flow comes from institutional relationships cultivated over decades at Tier 1 investment banks and fund managers. We maintain active sourcing relationships with leading VC and PE firms across the US, Europe, and MENA.
What is the typical holding period for private market investments?
VC investments typically have a 5-7 year holding period, while PE buyouts range from 4-6 years. Fund secondaries can offer shorter durations of 2-4 years depending on the vintage and portfolio maturity.
Can I invest in individual deals or only funds?
We offer both direct co-investment alongside leading funds and access to fund LP interests. Direct co-investments provide deal-level selection and reduced fee layers, while fund investments offer broader diversification.
