Founded in 2011 as a spin-out from Citigroup, Auldbrass Partners is a 100% employee-owned firm. Over the course of their careers, our principals have completed over $3.8 billion in secondaries transactions. We are solely focused on executing a specialized private equity strategy that takes equity positions in excellent companies with strong sustainable growth and resilience that can be reasonably expected to achieve liquidity in the near-term.
Auldbrass Partners acquires secondary interests through both LP interests and GP-led opportunities in middle market buyout, global buyout, and growth equity. We are growth secondaries investors who take a rigorous yet practical approach to valuation. Importantly, Auldbrass only partners with institutional quality managers that produce regular, reliable portfolio information. This allows Auldbrass to analyze the underlying companies and project future growth (or lack thereof), potential exit valuations and cash flow timing to ultimately make informed investment decisions.
Auldbrass’ team has significant investment experience and deep relationships across the PE eco-sphere. Our deal flow is generated from both direct General Partner and intermediary relationships built over decades of successful investing. By leveraging our combined networks, Auldbrass executes on a global sourcing initiative with impressive scope.
Our team has extensive experience executing sophisticated secondary transactions, with over $5 billion (500 fund transactions) of deal experience. We have the ability to underwrite transactions that require second or third level analysis (i.e., fund restructurings and SPVs). Additionally, Auldbrass’ proprietary pricing technology allows for quick turnarounds and seamless General Partner-Seller interaction.
