DOWNLOAD: Secondaries fundraising in H1 2019

Fundraising underwhelmed in the first half of 2019 but things are set to change in the second. Find out more with our interactive report showcasing Secondaries Investor data.

Fundraising for dedicated secondaries vehicles was low in the first half of this year with just $5.3 billion raised, according to Secondaries Investor data.

Funds that held final closes during the period averaged $484 million in size, the smallest average since the full-year 2011 figure of $444 million.

This is set to be turned on its head in the second half, with funds in market as of July seeking at least $87 billion. Strategic Partners held an $11.1 billion final close in mid-July and several of the largest names, such as Ardian and Lexington Partners, are expected to follow suit.
