”At Partners Capital, we recognize that no two investors are alike—which is why we offer a range of flexible co-investment structures to fit a wide variety of investor mandates. Whether through fully discretionary pooled funds, programmatic frameworks, outsourced co-investment underwriting of existing GP relationships, or hybrid models combining structure with flexibility, we tailor our approach to align with each investor's governance needs, return targets, and sourcing preferences. This flexibility is core to how we help our investors to maximize access to high-conviction opportunities while maintaining control where it matters most.”
