Guide to the Secondary Market

Preface

this
When we last published
report a year ago,

we marveled at how the secondary industry had


taken on many of the same characteristics seen in
the industry back in 2007. Pricing for certain
portfolios, particularly buyout funds, had once
again approached aggressive levels, in some
cases even hitting 100% of a portfolios
underlying net asset value. At the same time, an
abundance of capital available for secondary
deals and free-flowing cheap debt to finance them
drove an abundance of deal volume.
It was hard to imagine the market could get any
more ebullient. Yet, a year later, thats exactly
what has happened. As 2015 progresses,
however, the forces that helped drive secondary
deal volume to record levels in 2014 also
appear to be raising concerns among some
buyers that the market is getting overheated.
For the first time in a long time, more secondary
buyers have begun to question whether the
market has entered a bubble, particularly for
what they commonly refer to as flow funds, or
stakes in megabuyout funds.
In this edition of the Dow Jones Guide to the
Secondary Market, our survey results illustrate
some of those emerging concerns, with some 94%
of buyers surveyed characterizing the current

market as a sellers market. At the same time,


more than three-quarters of buyers in this years
survey say they feel pricing is too high.
However, as the secondary market has diversified,
buyers still point to pockets of deal flow where
pricing is often less efficient, such as in general
partner restructurings and in more complex
transactions involving portfolios of direct stakes in
companies or groups spinning out of large
financial institutions. They also acknowledge that
although strong pricing puts pressure on future
returns, it also attracts more sellers to the market.
Even a bubble may have its benefits.
We hope that this edition of our secondary guide
will help illuminate emerging trends in the market
and also provide a useful resource for prospective
sellers and GPs who want to identify possible
buyers for certain types of assets.
As always, we welcome your feedback on how we
can improve the content for future editions.

Secondary Market Goes Mainstream,


as Deal Volume Hits New High
By HILLARY CANADA

In addition

to being a record year for


secondary volume, 2014 may be
the year that finally smashed some lingering myths about
the secondary market.
The idea that the market would attract forced sellers has
been fading for years, and all but completely disappeared
during 2014 as limited partners, flush with cash from the
record distributions of their general partners, shopped
portfolios large and small as a way to refine their holdings.
Meanwhile, the dynamics surrounding a nascent part of the
market, general partner restructurings, slowly have started to
shift. No longer the exclusive province of the lumbering
zombie fund, restructurings and the selling of tail-end assets
are slowly becoming more commonplace among wellperforming GPs, said industry experts.
Those two trends, of portfolio management and of GPs
seeking solutions for aging funds, are expected to drive
deal flow in 2015, but secondary buyers polled by Dow
Jones in our annual secondary survey were divided over
whether secondary volume in 2015 would match or
exceed 2014 levels.
Deal value, which hit record levels in 2014 (see page 22 for
the various volume estimates), was driven partly by roughly a
dozen billion-dollar-plus transactions that came to market,
including portfolios from General Electric Co.s GE Capital,
Pennsylvania Public School Employees Retirement System
and J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.

Roughly two out of three survey respondents said they


anticipated 2015 to be a record year for volume as well,
citing good pricing for sellers, more opportunities for
GP restructurings and an aging set of funds in Asia
potentially fueling supply. The survey reflected
responses from 57 buyers, including some of the
industrys largest players.
Other respondents saw the blockbuster year in 2014 as
an outlier, driven by those large portfolios, and didnt
expect the same dynamics to materialize during 2015.
Eric Zoller, partner and co-founder of secondary adviser
Sixpoint Partners, said he was skeptical 2015 would be
marked by the same amount of big ticket transactions. The
exception may be in real estate secondaries, where Mr.
Zoller and others said they anticipated increased activity
and larger portfolios to manifest.

The prevalence of large transactions meant that a handful


of buyers accounted for a disproportionate percentage of
deal volume, according to Mathieu Dran, a managing
partner at placement agent Triago.
Other players were equally eager to get deals done, said
Mr. Dran, adding those buyers in the market who didnt
deploy as much capital as they would have liked in 2014
have greater incentive to make investments in 2015.

For its part, Triago estimates transaction volume in


2015 will reach between $35 and $40 billion, but
predicts fewer large transactions and a wider
diversification of buyers.
Roughly 44% of survey participants said they saw new
competition for deals during 2014, from limited partners
including family offices, endowments and foundations.
The massive wave of distributions that has washed over
LPs portfolios may serve to accelerate secondary buying
among LPs as they seek to invest capital quickly.
Through the first quarter, Mr. Dran said Triago already had
transacted with between 12 and 14 unique buyers a
much higher figure than usual.
In a given year, we usually end up transacting with 22 to
25 distinct buyers, he said, adding that interested buyers
run the gamut from dedicated secondary funds, funds of
funds, insurance companies, private offices and others.
The big theme for all LPs these days is to try to optimize
the deployment rate, said Mr. Dran. Theyre eager to do
secondary deals. Theyre clearing the deck of massive
amounts of money. He added those types of buyers would
stick primarily to simpler and smaller transactions.
As it did in last years survey, portfolio management
remains the primary driver of secondary deal volume,
accounting for an average of 46% of deal flow among this
years survey respondents, up from an average of 40% in a
similar survey conducted last year.
Many sellers are working on portfolio solutions, but are
waiting for the year-end numbers or even the March 31
numbers to come through, said Benot Verbrugghe,
head of the U.S. office at Ardian. We think that [in] the
second quarter, you will start to see new transactions
coming in the market.
Shifts in strategy, staffing changes and an overall
appetite to rebalance were among the underlying
motivators for some sellers in 2014, said Mr. Zoller. As
these types of pruning transactions have become more
commonplace, Triago calculated that the average
portion of a portfolio that will end up in secondaries is
close to 20%.

No sophisticated institutional investor today thinks about


private equity commitments as just buy and hold, Wilson
Warren, a partner at New York-based Lexington Partners
told Private Equity Analyst in April. They know that they
will have to do something actively with their portfolio over
time, or the portfolio will end up being too disparate.

Dont Bank On Financial Institutions


Regulatory changes in the U.S. and Europe drove an
average of about 29% of transactions, according to
survey respondents, in line with last years figures. But
industry experts predict that well is close to running dry,
as those financial institutions that continue to hold private
equity assets on their balance sheets cling tightly to
those investments.
Banks and insurance companies have been creative in
delaying sales in hopes that regulation would change,
said Mr. Zoller.
A two-year extension that gives banks until 2017 to comply
with the Volcker rule in the U.S. means that such

BANKS AND INSURANCE


COMPANIES HAVE
BEEN CREATIVE IN
DELAYING SALES IN
HOPES THAT REGULATION
WOULD CHANGE.
Eric Zoller, partner and co-founder of secondaries
adviser Sixpoint Partners
institutions have even more runway to delay a sale.
Meanwhile, in early 2015, bank regulators issued guidance
on the Volcker rule that appears to allow foreign banks
operating in the U.S. more leeway to hold onto certain
types of private equity investments.

Partners and AlpInvest Partners. J.P. Morgan had said its


plan to spin off One Equity wasnt in response to
regulatory pressure, but rather was a reflection of the
firms uneven returns and uncertainty over where the unit
fit within the bank, The Wall Street Journal reported.

That said, banks that have held onto assets may have an
incentive to sell thats driven more by the generous
pricing available than by looming regulatory threats, said
Mr. Dran. Its a good time to rationalize assets and cash
out, he said.

Lexington also was behind a deal to buy a substantial


portion of a $1.5 billion commitment Citigroup Inc. made
to a fund managed by Metalmark Capital. Citigroup moved
to shed its ownership stake in Metalmark in late 2013.

A group of European lenders, including Standard


Chartered PLC, HSBC Holdings PLC and Unicredit SpA,
were among those who sold large private equity fund
portfolios or initiated plans to do so last year.
Perhaps the highest-profile transaction in the bank space
last year came as J.P. Morgan agreed to sell roughly half
its stake in buyout arm One Equity Partners to Lexington

One secondary buyer estimated the remaining value of


bank-held private equity assets in the U.S. and Europe at
roughly $50 billion. That has dwindled from 2014, when
professionals estimated that there were between $60
billion and $85 billion of assets left to sell. Clearly a lot
of banks have sold at this point, said Stephen Sloan, a
managing partner at secondary intermediary Greenhill
Cogent. We dont expect them to be a growing part of
the market, though they do still have assets to sell.

Buyers Become Sellers

Restructurings Gain Popularity

Premium pricing also inspired some historical buyers,


including funds of funds, to sell portfolios, allowing them to
return cash more expediently to their own limited partners.
Private Advisors, Adams Street Partners, HarbourVest
Partners and Pantheon were among the funds of funds
that opted to explore options on the secondary market
during the past 18 months.

Despite challenges posed by trying to engineer


a fund restructuring, the number of such transactions
and the number of buyers willing to attempt them
continue to increase.

[Funds of funds] have a view on pricing for most assets


they own, and if someone in the market is pricing it
materially higher, theyre willing to sell, said Greenhill
Cogent Managing Director Brian Mooney.
Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, one of the
industrys most prominent secondary buyers, is among
those taking advantage of favorable pricing, exploring
the potential sale of a portfolio of stakes valued at
between $1 billion and $1.5 billion, Private Equity
Analyst reported in April.

Although GP restructurings accounted for an average of


20% of deal volume among this years survey
respondents, some 60% of our survey respondents said
they had participated in a general partner or fund
restructuring in 2014.
So-called zombie funds are becoming a smaller part of the
market, said Mr. Charles. Funds with brand-name GPs are
now being restructured to provide early, attractive liquidity
for LPs who want it, and better alignment and incentives
for LPs that want to stay in the fund and GPs that want to
improve dynamics around a predecessor fund, he said.
Landmark led one such deal for a 2006-vintage fund
managed by Intermediate Capital Group, a credit specialist
that focuses on North America and Europe. A portion of
the funds existing investors opted to roll over proceeds
into the deal, which was financed in part by a small
syndicate of investors Landmark assembled. ICG is in the
market seeking 2.5 billion for a new mezzanine fund,
Private Equity Analyst reported in January.
HarbourVest, Morgan Stanley Alternative Investment
Partners and Coller Capital are among the other investors
which tackled restructurings and financed spinouts during
the past 24 months, according to data provider Preqin Ltd.

Landmark Partners estimates that the number of


restructurings increased 35% year-over-year in 2014,
with the dollar volume of those transactions rising by
140%, according to Partner Ian Charles.

Yann Robard, who heads secondaries and co-investments at


the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, said these types
of deals, which he calls GP solutions, carry some of the
same myths and stigmas the traditional secondary market
battled in the 1990s.

THERES STILL A LOT OF ADVERSE


SELECTION IN THE MARKET...The deals are

at Greenhill Cogent

complex and theres a lot of conflict involved, but if you can construct
a solution that allows the LPs to have an option thats better than the
status quo, then it can be a win for everyone.
There was skepticism, and it was vulture-like from time to
time, but that has completely disappeared now, he said,
adding that as more these transactions take place, the
industry will get more comfortable with them.
Although restructurings are becoming more commonplace,
industry experts agreed their complexity can be off-putting
and such deals can still take unexpected turns.
HarbourVest, for example, agreed earlier this year to buy
stakes in two Doughty Hanson funds, committing an
additional 65 million to a planned fund. Doughty
Hanson, plagued by departures and meager returns,
announced in April it was abandoning efforts to raise a
new fund and would focus solely on managing out its
remaining assets, Dow Jones sister publication Private
Equity News reported.
For anyone to be successful in the fund restructuring
space, theyve got to have creativity, flexibility and partner

with right kind of manager who has a good relationship


with LPs and can balance the needs and objectives of
everyone involved, said Mr. Charles.
Theres still a lot of adverse selection in the market, said
Mr. Mooney of Greenhill Cogent. The deals are complex
and theres a lot of conflict involved, but if you can construct
a solution that allows the LPs to have an option thats better
than the status quo, then it can be a win for everyone.
Additionally, it would appear that in complicated
transactions such as restructurings, size matters. In smaller
restructurings, people are hesitant to get involved. Its the
same amount of work, the execution risk is higher, and the
payoff isnt as great, said Mr. Zoller.
The overall percentage of deals being evaluated is higher,
but the overall number of deals being executed is probably
low, Mr. Zoller added. More and more are getting done,
but the amount is less than people think.

Deals From Further Afield


Even as secondary buyers vie for more typical fund
portfolios, they are looking increasingly beyond traditional
private equity to pick up interests in other asset classes,
including infrastructure, credit, natural resources and real
estate. This year, 21% of survey respondents saw more than
one-fifth of the assets they purchased last year fall outside
of typical private equity or venture capital, up from 15% of
survey respondents the previous year and 12% of
respondents to a similar survey in 2013.
One asset class that experienced growth in secondary volume
last year was real estate, which accounted for an estimated
10% of total secondary deal volume for the year, according to
a report by Greenhill Cogent. (For more on the environment for
real estate secondaries, see the article on page 26.)
Although the locales of sellers and fund stakes are slowly
widening, survey respondents predicted a majority of their
fund would be used to purchase U.S. stakes.
Respondents predicted they would invest a median of 35% of
their current fund in non-U.S. deals, roughly the same percentage as their prior funds, according to the survey data. That figure also is in line with the results from last years survey.
Industry participants largely expect volume in the U.K.,
Japan, Brazil, Latin America and Australia to stay the same
year over year.
Japan was home to one of the dozen giant portfolios that
hit the market in 2015, as Mizuho Financial Group agreed
to sell a portfolio of about $1 billion worth of stakes to
Lexington Partners.

driving total secondary fundraising to $23.91 billion for the
year, up nearly 38% from $17.30 billion a year earlier,
according to data provider Dow Jones LP Source, which, like
the publisher of this supplement, is owned by Dow Jones.
Strong performance generated by private equity has helped
create a welcoming environment for those secondary firms
pitching new funds. Roughly 70% of respondents to our
survey described their most recent fundraising as very
easy or fairly easy, with around the same percentage
completing their funds in about a year or less.
As more large players, including Ardian, Coller Capital and
Partners Group, seek capital in 2015, however, some
industry professionals have expressed doubts about the
ability of firms to buy quality assets at competitive prices.
Others argue the amount of capital available to buy
secondary stakes is still a fraction of the overall amount of
assets available for purchase.
Theres only two years of buying power held by secondary
buyers, said an executive at one large secondary firm. n

onto their funds. In addition, secondary buyers have more
money than ever to spend, thanks to several consecutive
years of robust fundraising.
In 2014, secondary buyers raised a total of $23.91 billion
for new funds, surpassing the $17.30 billion raised a year
earlier but falling short of the $26.33 billion record
amount raised in 2012, according to Dow Jones LP
Source, a data provider that, like this publication, is
owned by Dow Jones. At the same time, institutional
investors, including pension funds such as the Canada
Pension Plan Investment Board and sovereign wealth
funds such as the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, have
stepped up their secondary buying activity.
The confluence of strong performance, cheap debt and
ample capital has helped create one of the strongest
sellers markets the secondary industry has ever seen,
according to the latest Dow Jones survey of secondary
buyers. Among this years survey respondents, 94%
characterized the current market as a sellers market,
roughly in line with buyer sentiment in 2007.

Public pension funds were the most likely to walk away from a
deal over pricing, with 38% of survey respondents indicating
they lost deals from public pensions over pricing, followed
closely by endowments and foundations at 35%. Banks and
insurance companies were the least likely in our survey to
walk away from a deal with secondary buyers over pricing.

As this report was going to press, buyers were pricing


assets off of valuations as of either Sept. 30 or 2014 yearend, with the anticipation that March 31 valuations would
be higher, according to buyers and intermediaries.
When the market turns, then youll assume that the NAVs
will be lower, said Kelly DePonte, a managing director at
placement agent Probitas Partners. If youre a secondary
player thats investing to make a profit, youve got to be
getting a bit more gun-shy right now.
Because of the lack of distressed-driven transactions,
sellers have no problem walking away from deals if buyers
cant match their price expectations. Among this years
survey respondents, 79% said a seller had walked away
from a deal over price concerns, a drop from the 88% of
respondents to last years survey that saw a seller walk away.

Secondary buyers in our survey were more likely to pay


up for buyout funds than venture funds, keeping with a
trend also seen in last years survey. Among survey
respondents, 62% said they paid more on average for
buyout funds than they did the previous year, compared
with 42% of respondents that paid more on average for
venture funds. Both fund types saw a higher percentage
of survey respondents pay more this year than those
buyers responding to a similar survey last year.
Average high bids for buyout funds hit 95% of a funds
underlying net asset value during the second half of
2014, according to a pricing analysis from Greenhill
Cogent. That is down slightly from the 100% of NAV
that average high bids hit during the first half of 2014
but still below the premiums to NAV that average high
bids for buyout funds hit in 2007. By contrast, average
high bids for venture funds were only 80% of NAV
during the second half of 2014, compared with 82% of
NAV during the first half.
On average, 24% of survey respondents in our survey paid
prices for buyout funds that were equal to those funds
underlying NAV, compared with only 11% of respondents
that paid par for buyout fund interests in last years survey.

Among this years survey respondents, 11% said they paid
prices for venture funds that were equal to or above the
underlying NAVs for those funds. By contrast, all of the
buyers that responded to a similar survey last year said
they paid less than NAV for venture fund stakes.
Secondary buyers and intermediaries say improved performance among venture capital funds over the past 18 months,
thanks partly to large infusions of capital from late-stage
investors and a favorable environment for venture-backed
IPOs, has helped lure some buyers back to the space. For the
12 months through Sept. 30, venture funds generated a
24.5% pooled end-to-end net return, outpacing the 18.1%
produced by private equity funds over the same period,
according to data from consultant Cambridge Associates.
Now that prices are higher on the buyout side, you see
more secondary buyers try to tap into new markets, so
more are looking into venture to stay away from high
pricing in the buyout markets, said the head of secondary
investments at one global fund of funds.

compared with a 19% average expected return among


buyers who responded to last years survey.

Weve seen leverage at the smaller end of the market


not just the 50-to-100 fund portfolios but the five-to-20
fund portfolios, he said.
Secondary buyers can employ leverage in several different
ways. Some may borrow from a third-party lender to help
fund the purchase of a secondary portfolio, much in the
way a buyout firm may use debt to help finance the
purchase of a portfolio company. The debt helps enhance
the return on the secondary buyers equity investment in a
deal, although early cash flows generated by the portfolio
often end up servicing the debt before they get distributed
back to the secondary fund and its investors. Adding debt
to a transaction can also enhance a firms buying power,
allowing it to fund a deal on its own rather than having to
split a transaction among multiple buyers, according to
intermediaries. Among respondents in this years survey,
9% said they had employed debt in transactions.
Far more of the buyers in our survey, 31%, employed debt at
the fund level as a cash management tool. Blackstone Groups
Strategic Partners Fund Solutions unit and Lexington Partners
both have used debt at the fund level to manage cash flows.

Continued high exit volume, combined with an abundance


of cheap debt allowing buyers to enhance the returns on
their equity investments, may be boosting more buyers
confidence that they can still meet return expectations,
even in a pricey market environment.

Layering debt onto a secondary fund allows a firm to finance


early deals outside of a funds balance sheet so that investors
that commit to later closings of a fund dont benefit from early
deals at the expense of investors that signed on earlier in the
funds life. Debt facilities at the fund level tend to have lower
interest rates than those that are placed on individual
portfolios because they are typically perceived as less risky.

Others, however, are taking steps to adapt to what they


expect will be a more challenging return environment
going forward.

Net IRR Expected From Future Funds

SL Capital Partners, for one, recently lowered the


proposed hurdle rate, the return threshold a fund must
reach before a sponsoring firm can start pocketing
profits from the fund, for its newest secondary pool to
12%, according to a recent report from sister
publication Private Equity Analyst. Although 12% is still
relatively high, it is modestly lower than the 14% hurdle
the firm set on its first secondary fund, a $146 million
vehicle closed in 2014.

Debt Goes Mainstream


Buyers and intermediaries say more secondary buyers than
ever are turning to the debt markets in their quest to
maintain high returns in a competitive pricing environment.
Leverage is very much a strategic decision at the
moment, said Gregg Kantor, who works on the fund
finance team at Investec Bank PLC, adding that even
secondary firms that havent previously used leverage
have started to educate themselves and their senior
partners about its use. Theres a mindset shift.
He added that secondary buyers and the limited partners
that back them have become more comfortable with the
use of leverage in secondary deals and funds, even in
smaller transactions.

The risk the bank is taking is that the [limited partners] do
not comply with capital calls, said Pierre-Antoine de
Selancy, a managing partner at 17Capital, which raised
some 500 million for its third fund in late 2014. Its a
very different risk from lending to someone for a portfolio
and using that portfolio as collateral.
But firms that dont use leverage say all this debt could come
back to haunt buyers in the event of a market downturn.
If the exit market becomes more difficult, you have
fewer distributions and your net asset values correct
because theyre linked to the public markets, said
Wouter Moerel, head of secondaries at AlpInvest
Partners. Then you could get into covenant issues
with your debt.
One final form of leverage used in secondary transactions
comes in the form of deferred payments or seller financing.
Secondary buyers may agree to pay a portion of the
portfolio sale up front and defer the remainder of the
payment one or even two years later. Doing so often helps
buyers bid more for a portfolio when the seller is
particularly sensitive to pricing, especially if the buyer
expects the portfolio to generate distributions in the near
term. Distributions can be used to help fund the deferred
portion of the payment for the deal.

GPs Flex Their Muscles


As more limited partners turn to the secondary market to
actively shed certain fund relationships in their portfolios,
general partners managing those funds are demanding a
greater say over who buys into their funds. Amid stiff
competition for deals, some GPs may even demand
prospective buyers of their fund stakes pony up additional
capital to back a new fund or new investments, often
called a stapled secondary transaction.
Among this years survey respondents, 31% backed at
least one stapled secondary deal in 2014, including 8%
that invested in two or more stapled secondary deals. By
contrast, only 16% of those same buyers had backed at
least one stapled secondary in 2013.

deals typically provide capital for new deals or a new fund


in addition to purchasing stakes in older portfolios.
Stapled secondaries can be risky, however, since it is often
harder to determine how well the general partner will do
with future investments than it is to assess a portfolio of
deals the firm has already backed. But so far, it is a risk
that many buyers seem willing to take.

A More Rational Mindset?


Although pricing has remained strong into 2015, buyers
and intermediaries say a softening in the U.S. economy or
a public market correction could prompt buyers to price
bids more conservatively and potentially take some
momentum out of the market.
One of the reasons pricing is so high is that people
anticipate that distributions and values will continue to go
up, said Brent Nicklas, managing partner and chief
executive of Lexington Partners, which in April wrapped up
its eighth fund at its $10.1 billion cap. The moment that
changes, youre going to see the bid-ask gap open up.
Others, however, say they see little chance of a market
correction anytime soon.

The growing popularity of general partner or fund


restructurings may also be driving growth of stapled
secondary deals, as secondary investors in restructuring

Financial markets have very short memories, and the only


way they move is because theres something big
happening, said Mr. Moerel of AlpInvest. Are people going
to be become more rational? I think something big needs to
happen, and right now theres nothing on the horizon. n

Secondary Market Posts Record Year in 2014,


Although Estimates Vary
By LAURA KREUTZER
and
Although many intermediaries
secondary buyers

agreed that 2014 was a record year for deal volume, they
disagreed over the size of that volume.
Historically, tracking secondary deal volume has been
tricky, given that investors and the general partners they
backed often want to keep the fact they are selling stakes
on the secondary market out of the public eye. Although
still an imperfect science, secondary deals are shedding
the stigma once attached to them and more sellers are
bringing portfolios, particularly large ones, to market,
which means measuring deal volume has gotten easier.
Estimates of total transaction volume in 2014 among some
half-dozen firms ranged from a little more than $35 billion
made by New York-based Lexington Partners to north of
$49 billion by Toronto-based intermediary Setter Capital.
Methodologies for capturing and measuring data differ,
with some organizations tracking deals they observe in the
market, including deals that they are aware of, even if they
arent directly connected to them. Others may use a
combination of buyer surveys, observed transactions and
their own analysis. For example, Setter Capital bases its
volume numbers largely on a regular survey of secondary
buyers and makes estimates based on the firms own
analysis of buyers and sellers in the market.
Even these estimates, however, leave some types of
transactions underrepresented, including the volume of
private securities of venture-backed companies trading on

platforms, such as those owned by SharesPost Inc. and


SecondMarket Inc., or trades between two institutional
limited partners that involve only a single fund stake.
As more investors turn to the secondary market to manage
their portfolios, and as firms that track the market continue
to hone their data gathering techniques, deal volume
estimates ultimately may start to converge around a slightly
narrower band of numbers, according to intermediaries. n

Real Estate Secondary Volume


Continues Growth Trajectory
By HILLARY CANADA
secondary market
The
real
estate
continued its exponential
growth during 2014 as generous pricing drew sellers to
the marketplace.

The number of real estate secondary transactions grew to


92 in 2014, a 60% increase from the 57 deals tracked in
2013, according to data from secondary firm Landmark
Partners. Similarly, the value of transactions in the sector
grew by 30% during 2014 to $4.8 billion from $3.69
billion a year earlier.

was raised by four funds, and a multifold increase from the


$100 million raised in 2013.
Some larger portfolios have started to trickle onto the market.
New Jersey Division of Investment, for instance, sold a
portfolio of 25 stakes for $925 million to NorthStar Realty
Finance Corp. and Goldman Sachs Asset Management.
According to a memo about the transaction, New Jersey was
able to sell the portfolio, which included funds from managers
including BlackRock Inc., CBRE Inc., TA Associates Realty
and others, at par to the portfolios underlying net asset value.

Real estate secondaries have been a laggard as it


compares to private equity, said Landmark Partner Jamie
Sunday. But he added that a growth spurt among private
equity real estate funds starting around 2005 has helped
expand the underlying asset base.

After trading at an average discount of nearly 30% of net


asset value in the years following the collapse of the housing
market in 2008, real estate fund stakes were attracting
much richer bids in 2014, according to data from
intermediary Greenhill Cogent. During the first half of the
year, real estate fund stakes attracted average high bids of
92% of NAV, according to the data.

And just as they do with private equity, limited partners turn


to the secondary market to prune their portfolios. LPs may
have questioned whether enough buyers capital existed to
justify bringing large portfolios to market, said Mr. Sunday.

Discounts are falling, said Fabian Neuenschwander, vice


president of the real estate secondaries business at
Partners Group. A lot of people are taking the opportunity
to sell interests into this market.

That attitude may be gradually changing in part because


more capital is slowly making its way into the space.

Mr. Neuenschwander added, however, that buyers can still


find good deals. Youre buying into improving fundamentals,
he said.

Strategic Partners Fund Solutions, the secondary platform


Blackstone Group bought from Credit Suisse Group, as
well as Carlyle Groups fund-of-funds Metropolitan Real
Estate and Morgan Stanley Alternative Investment Partners
were said to be raising or considering raising dedicated
secondary pools, Private Equity News reported in 2014.
Last year was a record year for real estate secondary
fundraising, with three vehicles closing on a combined
$2.3 billion, according to data provider Preqin Ltd. That
was the highest annual total since 2010, when $2.2 billion

U.S.- and European-focused funds continue to be the


most heavily traded, making up a combined 85% of the
market, but Asian real estate partnerships made up 11% of
activity in 2014, up from 4% a year earlier, according to
Landmarks data.
Partners Group struck one of the largest deals in the region
when it agreed to buy the interests of more than 30 LPs in a
$1 billion China-focused fund. That deal involved shifting
management of the vehicle, known as the Trophy Fund, from
Winnington Capital to Venator Real Estate Capital Partners,
Private Equity Analyst reported at the time. The deal bought
extra time for the fund, the life span of which has been
extended to 2017, and provided liquidity to LPs who had yet
to see any returns prior to the deal.
In a first quarter briefing, Greenhill Cogent predicted that
2015 real estate secondary volume is on a trajectory to
easily eclipse 2014 volume as interest in selling fund stakes
continues to grow. This will likely be prompted in part by a
diversification of LPs eager to cull their portfolios.
Over the last two to three years, the seller base has
greatly expanded from the financial crisis, said Mr.
Neuenschwander. More and more people see it as an
option to get liquidity. n

Secondary Buyers Prepare


for Wave of Energy Fund Sales
By ALEC MACFARLANE

A handful of

fund managers are looking to


raise money to buy
secondhand interests in energy-focused private equity
funds, as a maturing of the market and a slide in oil prices
creates attractive opportunities in the sector.

Fueling Up for Energy Secondaries

AlpInvest Partners, Adams Street Partners and HarbourVest


Partners have each launched or are in the process of
launching offerings that include secondary purchases of
energy funds or assets as part of their investment strategies.
We do [think it is an interesting time to invest], said Brett
Gordon, a managing director at HarbourVest. If you think about
what makes for attractive secondaries, first you need a lot of
inventory, and theres been a lot of money raised in dedicated
energy funds. With that inventory and the volatility, its really
created an interesting time for people who are considering
investing and for people to bring deals to the marketplace.
Mr. Gordon declined to comment on HarbourVests
fundraising. AlpInvest and Adams Street also declined to
comment on fundraising.
Secondary investors seek to capitalize on the huge
amounts of money raised over the past decade by energyfocused private equity firms. About $276 billion was raised
by 417 energy-focused private equity funds between 2005
and 2014, according to data provider Preqin Ltd., creating
large amounts of future inventory for secondary buyers.
The recent slide in oil prices is also expected to create
opportunities for secondary managers, as investors that
are overexposed to energy-focused funds and have seen
their valuations suffer look to shed assets as part of efforts
to rebalance their portfolios. So far, however, buyers have
been in a wait and see mode, according to several
industry participants. We have seen an uptick in sellers
asking for pricing on energy funds, but few deals are
getting inked, Robert McGrath, co-founder of Torontobased intermediary Setter Capital, said in an email.
Research conducted earlier this year by consultancy Wood
Mackenzie said lower oil prices pose the biggest threat to
oil and gas industry earnings and financial solidity since the
financial crash of 2008, with Brent crude trading at around
30% below the 2014 average of $99 a barrel as of early
May. Industry figures said the slide is likely to have a big
impact on the valuations of private equity funds heavily
invested in oil and gas services businesses, as clients
pressured by pricing look to cut costs and reduce services.
We are also seeing sellers looking at selling generalist
private equity funds that have energy exposure such as

Adams Street Partners


Fundraising Plans: Adams Street is marketing an energyfocused fund of funds that will also target secondary deals as
part of its strategy.

AlpInvest Partners
Fundraising Plans: AlpInvest is targeting $500 million for
an energy-focused secondary fund and aims to hold a first
closing by this summer, according to people familiar with the
fund. Justine Gordon, who joined the firm in September from
Guggenheim Partners, leads the new effort.

HarbourVest Partners
Fundraising Plans: HarbourVest hired Kevin Warn Schindel
from OPTrust Private Markets Group to lead its real assets
program. The firm expects to launch a real assets offering
later this year with a large allocation to energy secondaries,
according to a person familiar with the offering.
Source: Dow Jones Private Equity News

Blackstone [Group] and Warburg Pincus, wrote Setter


Capitals Mr. McGrath. Buyers are still very keen to buy these
types of funds, and aside from marked-to-market movements
in the funds public holdings, pricing remains very full.
Despite the opportunity, some industry figures have
cautioned that while it may be a good time to invest in
energy secondary deals, it could be a challenging time to
raise energy-focused secondary funds.
There are definitely some attractive opportunities in the oil
and gas space because of the oil price and its impact on
valuations of companies and assets, which have been
otherwise quite high in the last couple of years, said
Thomas Liaudet, a partner at secondary intermediary
Campbell Lutyens. On the other hand, it might be more
challenging for those managers raising capital because
some [investors] might see this space as being slightly less
attractive at the moment, and also might feel theyre quite
overweight to energy in general, given that they have
invested a lot in the space in the past few years. n

Buy-Side Broker Boom Brings Risks


and Rewards to Secondary Market
People are being pinged with so many different ideas that
theyre thinking about it more often, said Mr. McGrath.
Setter, which got its start primarily as a buy-side broker,
helped intermediate a sale of a portfolio of fund stakes by
HarbourVest Partners to Goldman Sachs Group Inc., said
people familiar with that deal. These days, the firm is
involved in both buy-side and sell-side activities.
The large number of intermediaries out there pitching
prospective deals can sometimes confuse potential buyers,
said an executive at one midsize secondary buyer.

By LAURA KREUTZER
volume hit record levels in
Secondary deal
2014 and more secondary

intermediaries than ever want a piece of the action.

Secondary buyers and sellers said that in recent years they


have seen explosive growth in the number of buy-side brokers, or intermediaries that act as guns for hire trying to drum
up deals for private equity buyers. Thanks partly to lower barriers to entry, the proliferation of such groups has presented
buyers and sellers with a fresh set of opportunities and risks.
Unlike sell-side intermediaries, which typically get hired and
compensated by sellers in a secondary transaction, buyside brokers tend to operate more like free agents. They may
approach buyers to gauge their interest in specific fund
names and then reach out to investors they know that have
backed those funds to see if they are willing to sell.
Firms such as Setter Capital, River Street Capital and
Scalar Capital have engaged in buy-side broker activities.
Some traditional sell-side brokers or advisers have
brokered buy-side deals or are considering doing so.
Setter said more than 300 individual agents have
registered with the firms SecondaryLink website, an online
platform connecting potential buyers and sellers.
Growth in the intermediary industry, including that of
buyers brokers, has helped drive more secondary deal
flow, said Peter McGrath, co-founder of Setter. The
Toronto firm estimates about 57% of all secondary deal
flow, which includes private equity, hedge funds, real
estate and natural resource plays, that took place in 2014
involved an intermediary of some kind, according to the
firms midyear secondary deal report.

Well get calls from four or five different buy-side


brokers telling me that they have an exclusive
relationship with a seller, and often they obscure what
the interests are, so I cant piece together that its the
exact same portfolio that another buy-side broker
pitched me, this executive said. I may be talking to four
buy-side brokers bidding against myself and have all
four of them telling me that I owe them.
The number of brokers pitching deals can also present
complications for sellers, according to Benot Verbrugghe,
who heads the U.S. operations for French firm Ardian.
If the seller gives the same portfolio to too many brokers,
the process could be difficult to manage, said Mr.
Verbrugghe. In the end, you still have to manage
confidentiality and information about the funds and the
GPs, so you need to make sure this type of approach is
well managed.
Buyers and sellers arent the only ones taking risks,
however. Newer buy-side brokers also can find themselves
at the mercy of less scrupulous sellers, particularly if they
dont negotiate a contract upfront.
You definitely have more risk there because you dont
have anyone thats mandated you, said Mr. McGrath. You
run the risk of making nothing at the end of the day, even if
you do connect the dots.
Mr. McGrath added that as the market continues to mature,
it will differentiate between established players and less
experienced ones.
A senior executive at one large secondary buyer said the
recent growth of buy-side intermediaries has been driven
in large part by ebullient returns from underlying private
equity portfolios, which will not continue indefinitely.
When theres a downturn, no one will return their phone
calls and many of these guys will go away, the senior
executive said. n

Secondary Market Offers Seed Funds


an Exit Option but Few May Use It
By YULIYA CHERNOVA
have long wrestled
Seed-stage investors
over when they should cash out

of their positions in the start-ups they back, and secondary


transactions in high-valuation private rounds now offer them
potentially lucrative exit options.
But it remains to be seen how many seed-stage fund
managers will take advantage of them.
Startups that got to late-stage rounds were showered by
sizable capital investments at high valuations last year, and
the deals only got larger in the beginning of 2015. In the first
quarter of 2015, for example, the median amount invested in
second venture capital rounds jumped 48% from a year ago,
according to data provider Dow Jones VentureSource.
Second round valuations in 2014 jumped about 44% over
2013 figures, and late-stage valuations doubled.
This puts pressure on seed funds, which are often less
than $100 million in size and are at risk of dilution as
rounds get larger. At the same time, its becoming
increasingly acceptable for employees, founders and early
investors to sell some of their shares in a late-stage round.
These large late-stage rounds have taken the place of the
IPO, and as such, I think theres an opportunity for seed
funds to be selling part of their ownership, said Chris
Douvos, managing director at fund-of-funds manager
Venture Investment Associates. Today, the opportunity to
sell in these later-stage rounds is another arrow in the
quiver of the seed funds in terms of generating returns
[and] returning cash to their limited partners.
Mr. Douvos said the secondary market has become a
portfolio management tool for seed funds and that some of
the funds in which his firm is a limited partner have lightened
up their positions in the highfliers.
Its something thats going on, not with great frequency,
but at the same time, its an increasingly important part for
peoples liquidity strategy, Mr. Douvos said.
Michael Kim, managing partner at Cendana Capital, a fund of
seed funds, said he advises all of the fund managers in his
portfolio to consider participating in secondary transactions.
Mr. Kim said, however, that he sees more resistance than
willingness on the part of seed funds to cash out early.
Theres some greed involved, Mr. Kim said.
He added that hed like to see more secondary transactions.
I think its important for them to monetize and get some
cash back to LPs. It hasnt happened as much as I thought it
would, Mr. Kim said.

The proportion of secondary sales volume done by investors


rather than employees is hovering at low-single-digit percentages on SecondMarket, a platform that facilitates large secondary transactions, according to Anil Sharma, spokesman
for the company. SecondMarket Holdings Inc. facilitated
about $1.4 billion in secondary transactions last year, with
most of the shares being sold by startup employees.
Seed funds can see nice upticks in paper valuations as latestage rounds get done at stratospheric valuations. Those
that hold onto shares hope that future rounds or initial public
offerings would increase the value of their shares even more.
But there are many reasons to sell at least some of the
shares now, Mr. Kim said. On the one hand, its unclear
when some companies plan to reach an exit. Theres more
talk in the market about staying private longer or even
indefinitely, raising questions as to when seed investors
would see a return if they dont cash out in private rounds.
The median time it took venture-backed companies to go
from an initial venture capital round to IPO was 6.94 years in
2014, compared to just 5.6 years in 2005, according to
Dow Jones VentureSource. Private companies that reached
a valuation of greater than $1 billion in their most recent
private rounds are even older than those that went public.
The median time frame between this groups initial venture
round and valuations topping the $1 billion mark hit 7.7
years as of April 1, according to Dow Jones VentureSource.
As timelines stretch, seed investors risk both greater dilution
and getting caught in a valuation downdraft if markets shift
before they can exit. Mr. Douvos said that even as fund
managers consider secondaries, they should keep in mind
that a downturn in the market will reset the clock.
In the fullness of time, everyone will be judged on the
capital that they returned. There were a lot of high-flying
venture firms during the bubble that had incredible paper
positions that evaporated, Mr. Douvos said. n

Secondary Funds Continue to Reap


Rewards of Strong Exit Market
For the private equity industry as a whole, disposals
continued to dominate the headlines this past year, with
firms posting a record $175.28 billion in exits in 2014,
compared with $125.04 billion for the prior year, according
to data provider Dealogic Ltd. Dealogic data includes only
exits via mergers and acquisitions and not initial public
offerings, and the total value includes only those with
publicly disclosed financial terms.
Meanwhile, secondary deal volume hit record levels, reaching
$35.14 billion last year, according to secondary firm
Lexington Partners, up from $23.35 billion the year before.

By DAVID SMAGALLA

Private equity firms generated


record-setting

exits in 2014 and secondary firms reaped the rewards,


returning an increased volume of cash to investors over the
past year, according to a sample of private equity
performance data from several large pension funds.

Various private equity strategies performed particularly well


during 2014, according to industry performance benchmarks
published by consultant Cambridge Associates. U.S. private
equity funds benchmark return reached 18.09% for the
one-year period ended Sept. 30, 2014, compared with
18.51% for U.S. buyout and growth equity funds and
24.46% for U.S. venture funds, which both went on an exit
tear this last year. Secondary vehicles, though strong, still
lagged their private equity brethren, providing a benchmark
return of 14.7% for the one-year period.

Funds raised during the end of the last private equity boom
period were some of the best at pumping out cash to their
investors in 2014.
One caveat to this report, which looks at a small number of
secondary fund holdings from the 2002-vintage year
forward, is that our sample is too small to draw any
definitive conclusions about the state of the secondary
market and doesnt include many smaller secondary funds,
which typically dont receive capital from large public
pension funds.
Coller International Partners V LP, which closed in 2007 at
$4.8 billion, continued to show its strength, returning
$114.9 million on a $375 million commitment from the
California Public Employees Retirement System for the
year ended Sept. 30, 2014, according to a private equity
performance report. Coller Capital has been busy over the
past few years, scooping up various portfolios from banks
and others looking to dispose of their private equity
holdings, including most recently buying a portfolio of
private equity fund stakes from Fleming Family & Partners,
the manager that invests on behalf of the family of James
Bond author Ian Fleming and other wealthy individuals.
Another fund returning a substantial amount of money to
investors was NB Secondary Opportunities Fund II LP, a
2007-vintage fund that closed on $1.7 billion. The fund
returned $32.5 million for the year ended Dec. 31, 2014,
to the New Jersey State Investment Council on a
commitment of $100 million.

The Rise of Real Estate Secondaries


By ANDREI BROUGHAM of Greenhill Cogent

Until recently,

stakes in buyout funds


accounted for the majority
of funds sold in the secondary market. Although still an
important source of supply today, the prevalence of
buyout funds which now represent just under half of all
secondary sales by number has given way to other
private equity strategies.
As a result, limited partners now have the opportunity to
use the market to provide liquidity for any part of their
alternative asset portfolios. This was demonstrated in 2014
by a dramatic surge in real estate secondaries.
Historically hampered by a small buyer universe and weak
pricing, the secondary market for real estate funds used to
be very thin. As recently as 2010, average pricing for such
funds was less than 50% of net asset value, and many
real estate funds marketed failed to receive bids, resulting
in dwindling volumes. By 2014, the transaction volume of
real estate secondaries surged to $4 billion globally, the
highest level ever recorded. Even more striking, LPs were
able to fetch a whopping 90% of NAV on average for their
real estate portfolios, also a record.
What explains this dramatic rise in volume and pricing for
what was until recently considered a niche segment? Firstly,
there has been a sharp influx of real estate buyers over the
past four years, as investors have been drawn to the sector
not just to diversify away from large-cap buyouts, but also
to gain exposure to a fast-growing sector of alternatives.
Secondly, because of the health of the commercial real
estate market and a strengthening overall economy, real
estate valuations have rebounded sharply since the financial
crisis. According to data provider Preqin Ltd., real estate
assets under management reached a record $742 billion as
of 2014, and real estate funds saw an average increase in
NAV for 17 straight quarters to June 2014. Real estate funds
generated annualized returns of 16.7% over the past three
years, with 93% of institutional investors stating that fund
performance has met or exceeded expectations.
As a result of the continued strong performance of real
estate funds, the market for real estate secondaries is the
deepest it has ever been. Specialized real estate investors
and dedicated real estate secondary funds remain the
most active buyers in the sector, and their number and
fund sizes have continued to swell. Some of the larger
groups have seen commitments to their funds nearly
double in the past few years, and today these buyers
collectively command about $7 billion in dry powder
dedicated to real estate secondaries. Not captured by this
figure, however, are the many funds of funds and typical
LPs such as family offices and endowments who also
have entered the market as serious buyers.
The upshot of more buyers in the market has been record
pricing. More than 50% of real estate funds transacted in

2014 attracted bids at 90% of NAV or higher, and 95%


received bids at 80% of NAV or higher. The increasing
number of buyers alone has raised competition within the
asset class, but more importantly, the sector expertise
introduced by specialized buyers has elevated the markets
underwriting capabilities and narrowed previously wide bidask spreads. Specialized real estate investors remain the
dominant buyer group in the market and have proven
themselves willing to pay up for diversified real estate
portfolios. As the market matures, newer entrants such as
funds of funds and typical LPs are expected to begin
competing more aggressively, as they benefit from a lower
cost of capital and unique insight into funds and
underlying assets.
The composition of the market for real estate secondaries
closely mirrors the primary fundraising market. Three-fifths
of the real estate funds sold in the secondary market invest
in North America, a third in Europe and the remainder in
Asia and the rest of the world. Opportunistic and valueadded real estate funds are dominant, and each account for
one-third of the total market supply. General partner-led
transactions (such as fund recapitalizations) have become
common place in the buyout space and eventually are
expected to become more widely adopted by real estate
managers looking to expand their time horizons or maximize
the value of older funds.
The rise of the secondary market has equipped LPs with a
powerful liquidity tool that now encompasses all alternative
asset fund strategies. The tremendous growth of real estate
secondaries over the past few years is a testament to that.
A burgeoning buyside with sector-specific expertise has
brought increased competition, fresh dry powder and strong
pricing to a previously illiquid alternatives strategy. Similar
developments are taking place in other alternative asset
strategies such as energy, infrastructure, credit and funds of
funds, and the secondary market is primed to become even
more diverse over time.
