Standard Life Private Equity Trust Information

This is delivered through the investment objective, which is to achieve long-term total returns through holding a diversified portfolio of private equity funds and co-investments, a majority of which will have a European focus. As managers of the Trust, we do this by investing in private equity funds and co-investments run by some of the leading private equity managers who have the expertise to source, grow and sell private companies, seeking to deliver attractive investment returns. The funds invest in mature businesses primarily through management buy-out transactions. The portfolio will comprise around 50 active private equity funds, managed by a select group of fund managers, with a target of building an underlying portfolio of around 400 private companies.
