PE firms adding hedgefunds to approved lender lists Submitted 16/08/2023 - 11:22am Private equity firms, including buyout major KKR & Co, are beginning to add hedgefunds to their 'white lists' of approved lenders used to arrange funding for leveragedbuyout deals, according to a report by Bloomberg.
Ten years ago, I was an analyst for the General Motors pension fund, working on fund investments into leveragedbuyoutfunds and venture capital deals. I literally wrote the investment memo for GMs investment into Accel IX, otherwise known as the "Facebook Fund." (I Because, venture isn''t about the money.
Types of Alternative Investments Alternative investments are non-traditional investment options that offer diversification, unique opportunities and potential higher returns beyond conventional asset classes like stocks and bonds. Some common hedgefund strategies include long/short equity, global macro, event-driven and arbitrage.

This week, we speak with Steven Klinsky, founder and CEO of New Mountain Capital , which runs over $37 billion in assets under management. Klinsky also served as one of the first five general partners at Forstmann Little, helping to oversee seven private equity and debt partnerships totaling over $10 billion in capital.
They do everything from hard assets like real estate, infrastructure, aircraft, power plants, to private debt, event driven opportunities. So there was some assets that were salvageable. But because these are really good businesses, which got levered, they got leveraged through these leveragebuyouts.
They run over $27 billion in, in assets. But there came to be, in certain situations, buyers that were bootstrap, buyers that were, we would call ’em today, they then leveragedbuyout financiers. And the institutional investors often are thinking if you’re a big state pension fund, I want 10%, 20%.
And what was interesting was the first leveragedbuyout of a public company happened when I was in graduate school. KLINSKY: In 1979, it was the first leveragedbuyout of a public company. We had sold the family business, maybe buy another family business one day through a leveragedbuyout. KLINSKY: Yeah.
I wanna say it’s about $179 billion in client assets. You’ve probably heard some aspects of this from the various interviews I’ve done with Howard Marks talking about the distressed assetfund they set up in 2007. That had mismatched assets. It’s not an asset that other creditors can go after.
Private equity firms have sought to join a special club: managing $1 trillion in assets, a milestone that would put them in the same league as mutual fund behemoths like BlackRock and Fidelity and banking giants like JPMorgan Chase. It has also moved into hedgefunds, credit trading, infrastructure investing and more.
trillion in total assets and advises on a whole lot more. I was working directly with the CEO and president of both companies, but I realized that the biotech vertical was not my playing field for the long term, hence the NBA at Harvard to find another career path and, and that led me into asset management. Is there any other kind?
One, two, there was a theory that these businesses had volatile cash flows and therefore couldn’t be leveraged, which was the, you know, the whole point of leveragedbuyouts. If you didn’t understand how the semiconductor worked, if you didn’t understand how the software was built.
There were loosely defined mandates and guidelines for risk and asset classes which caused duplications and triplications, Berg says of the investment operating model in an interview with Top1000funds.com. This would deliver a very high-quality asset with low risk and volatility, and this became the early model of Borealis, Berg says.
I think that the asset stripping that has also occurred, pensions, for instance, are sold off, overfunded pensions get sold off and that goes into the private equity firm instead of into the company itself. Or should this be kept out of private asset allocators’ hands? How about putting more of your own skin in the game?
So, I graduated from business school in 1987 and went to GE Capital for two years, financing leveragedbuyouts. I mean, you know, I probably shouldn’t have been doing it because I had been a journalist covering public schools and knew nothing about leveragedbuyouts. And I actually started out of business school.
