edit

The firm operates three business lines:

  • Fundraising for private equity, private debt, infrastructure and sustainable investing fund managers (as a placement agent).[3][4] Campbell Lutyens assists private equity firms in raising funds and advises on all stages and aspects of the fundraising process including strategy, documentation and structuring. The firm acts typically for European, US and Asian managers raising funds of between $300 million and $5 billion from institutional investors globally.
  • Advisory services for limited partners and general partners with a focus on the secondary market, including the sale and restructuring of portfolios. In addition to advising institutions and asset managers on the secondary sale of portfolios of limited partnership fund interests, the firm advises general partners of private equity, private debt and infrastructure funds on the realization, refocusing or resizing of funds.[5][6] Typically, advisory transaction mandates range in size from $100 million to $3 billion.
  • Advisory services for general partners on investment and strategic growth decisions related to their management companies and general partner financing options, including minority GP equity investments.[7]
