Wealth management is steadily evolving with global private equity potentially becoming an interesting part of many modern investment portfolios. If you're considering diversifying your portfolio beyond traditional asset classes, into areas like European private equity, there are several aspects you'll need to comprehend. Reach Alternative Investments is here to serve as your guide.
Let's start by understanding what private equity entails. It's an asset class comprising investments into capital (i.e. business) that isn't listed on public exchanges. A fund typically pools investors money and these 'pools' are used to acquire stakes in companies and businesses. To learn more about private equity funds that Reach Alts enables click here.

Europe’s private equity space spans technology, consumer goods, healthcare, and more, which could potentially unlock new avenues for your investment portfolio.
Investing in private equity is a detailed process; it begins with identifying a suitable fund and setting up the legal structure. The team at Reach Alternative Investments engages in thorough research throughout the year to curate selections of private market funds from global fund managers. They further simplify the process by providing an investor portal, where you can view these opportunities, communicate with the investment team, invest, and receive tax reporting.

Like any investment, private equity carries inherent risks. These may include the potential lack of liquidity, business insolvency, or the risk that a fund may not meet its target return. To mitigate these risks, it is crucial that due diligence is meticulously performed before making an investment.
Risks not withstanding, European private equity has shown strong performance in the recent past, indicating the potential for attractive returns. However, it is essential to note that past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance, nor a guarantee of future results. Detailed vetting of funds can act as a safeguard against potential pitfalls. Learn more about vetting a private equity fund from an Australian perspective here.
