SPV Structuring — frequently asked questions
It ring-fences a position, simplifies administration and can aggregate investors to meet minimums.
A qualified administrator; we coordinate structuring and the underlying access.
A single-name SPV holds one position, giving investors clean, identifiable exposure to a specific company or deal. A multi-name SPV holds a basket, spreading risk across several positions within one subscription. Single-name vehicles suit conviction allocations; baskets suit investors wanting diversified access at a single minimum.
The SPV becomes the shareholder of record or the contracting party, and investors hold interests in the SPV rather than the underlying shares. A professional administrator runs subscriptions, reporting and distributions, and when the underlying position exits, proceeds flow through the vehicle to investors.
Exactly what the vehicle holds — direct title to shares or an interest in another structure — plus the aggregate economics across any layers, transfer and liquidity terms, governance and the administrator’s credentials. Nested structures are not inherently bad, but each layer should be visible and justified.
It covers US pre-IPO secondaries, curated deal access for private equity funds and family offices, PE/VC fund placement, and AI data-centre investments — for qualified investors.
Pre-IPO secondaries, GP- and LP-led secondaries, co-investments, PE/VC fund placement and SPVs, plus thematic exposure to AI data centres, digital infrastructure and the energy transition.
Access is for qualified investors — primarily PE funds, family offices and institutions — subject to eligibility, suitability and counterparty terms.
Engagements ordinarily combine a retainer with a success fee. Terms are agreed in writing before work begins and calibrated to the mandate’s size, scope and complexity.
Most mandates reach a first term sheet within 30 days, depending on diligence readiness and structure; closing follows once terms are agreed.
