Fund Raising Research

Fund raising has become a challenge in the post-Lehman era. We at PE Insights, realize that raising a fund is a time consuming task and requires time and focus of fund managers which makes them hard-pressed for managerial bandwidth. We help investment managers in fund raising mode through the following offerings:

  • Fund Raising scenario research: As the Indian Private Equity real estate market matures, “opportunistic” funds will give way to funds with a more focused investment strategy. As larger funds get raised for the Indian Private Equity market, it becomes imperative for fund managers to search for a differentiation strategy.
  • PE Insights private equity database helps fund managers find out which are the funds that were closed recently in the market, their sizes, their LP profiles, the strategies used by these funds etc. We help fund managers identify differentiating strategies and shortlist potential investors and placement agents based on these. We also introduce fund managers to our network of Limited Partners and placement agents.
  • Information requirements for the Private Placement Memorandum (PPM): PE Insights helps fund managers by giving an aggregate analysis of the fund raising and investment scenario in the Indian Private Equity market which can be used by them to validate their investment strategies. This would enable the fund manager to focus on marketing the fund while outsourcing the research requirements to PE Insights, thus shortening the time taken to close the fund.
