Being integrated and global is key

Partners Group's integrated management approach to private markets investing includes a combination of direct, secondary and primary investments in private real estate. Investing in this manner allows the firm to take maximum advantage of market opportunities for the benefit of its clients. Specifically, the firm is able to leverage its large global network to source, analyze and execute a broad array of attractive investments in each asset class and across the globe. As a result, Partners Group has the tools required to construct portfolios that can more effectively mitigate J-curves, provide earlier distributions and enhanced liquidity and reduce underlying fees.
Directs. Direct private real estate investments are private investments directly into the equity or debt of selected operating properties or portfolios of properties, typically together with the owner of the asset. During the holding period of the investment Partners Group is taking an active role in the value creation process.
Secondaries. Secondary investments at Partners Group involve acquiring single or portfolios of real estate assets on the secondary market. Partners Group offers other market participants an exit possibility in a market which is highly liquidity-constrained.
Primaries. Primary investments are investments in newly established private real estate partnerships where underlying portfolio assets are not known as of the time of investment.
