A Foundational Component of Private Equity Exposure
Primary investments are a compelling entry point for investors to access the private equity asset class through a diversified portfolio of limited partnership interests in private equity funds.
Northleaf's 20+ year history and experience investing in the mid-market has positioned us as a partner of choice to private equity fund managers globally.
Investment Approach
Investing in leading private equity funds since inception.
Our primary investment strategy leverages our extensive network, proactive sourcing and integrated platform to identify and partner with difficult-to-access mid-market private equity fund managers with a proven ability to add long-term value to high-quality companies.
Buyouts
Funds that source equity investments and actively drive value creation in established mid-market companies
Growth Equity & Venture Capital
