Private Markets & Alternatives

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.

Matchpoint undertakes pre-IPO secondary tickets from USD 5m upwards per name, varying by opportunity and structure. Fund placements and co-investments are sized to each investor’s mandate. All access is for qualified investors, subject to eligibility and counterparty terms.

Pricing is negotiated with the selling holder and benchmarked against the company’s most recent funding round and comparable secondary trades. Matchpoint runs pricing, structure and counterparty diligence on every allocation, so investors see how the entry price compares before committing.

Yes. The Alternatives practice provides equity and debt access to AI data-centre and digital-infrastructure opportunities across the GCC and globally — from construction through refinancing — for institutional investors and family offices seeking contracted, infrastructure-like cash flows with structural demand growth.

GCC family offices access direct real-estate deals through co-investment alongside sponsors, deal-by-deal special-purpose vehicles and proprietary origination, rather than committing blind to a pooled fund, and an adviser such as Matchpoint Partners sources and structures that access. Direct and co-investment routes give control over each asset, fee efficiency and transparency, but require underwriting, structuring and diligence capacity the family may prefer to outsource. Matchpoint originates opportunities, prepares investment-committee materials and supports underwriting for family offices and private-wealth platforms across the GCC, UK, Switzerland and Singapore, subject to mandate fit, diligence, applicable regulation and a formal engagement.

Yes, deal-by-deal co-investment is one of the most common ways a GCC family office deploys into real estate: the family takes a direct stake in a single asset alongside the sponsor, usually through an SPV with agreed economics, governance and reporting. It avoids blind-pool exposure and lets the family choose each deal on its merits. The work is in the structuring, the alignment of terms and the diligence. Matchpoint Partners assesses the sponsor, structures the co-investment and prepares the investment-committee pack, subject to mandate fit, diligence, applicable regulation and a formal engagement.

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.
