Emerging managers in the US private market have dwindled to 12.7% participation in 2023, driven by limited exits in PE and VC, as highlighted in PitchBook’s recent analysis by Jessica Hamlin. Yet, favoring established managers may lead LPs to miss significant returns. Since 1997, emerging VC managers consistently outperform despite higher volatility, while in buyout fund investing, they outshine established peers by 6.6 percentage points. Major investors seek emerging manager programs for diversification and unique strategies. Amidst market challenges, identifying dedicated emerging talent becomes paramount for LPs.

Are risk-averse allocators sacrificing performance by overlooking emerging managers? Recent data from PitchBook suggests so. Consider this: PitchBook’s analysis found that emerging managers in venture capital have consistently outperformed – delivering higher median IRRs than their more established counterparts since 1997. Newer buyout fund managers are also gaining momentum, outperforming their more recognized peers in the last investing cycle. Across private markets, the dedication of today’s emerging managers shines through, despite market uncertainties. This has certainly been the case with the ones we have worked with.

🚀 Emerging Fund Managers: The Unsung Heroes of Investment Returns? As venture capital and private equity landscapes evolve, the debate intensifies around the potential of emerging managers. Recent data from PitchBook highlights a crucial trend: while the overall share of US private market fundraising by newer managers dipped to 12.7% in 2023, their performance tells a different story. 💡 **TLDR on Why Emerging Managers Outperform:** Emerging managers often bring fresh perspectives and agility, allowing them to exploit niche markets and innovate. Their smaller size enables quicker adaptation and a focus on higher-risk, higher-return strategies that can lead to outsized gains compared to the industry giants. 📈 Key Insights: - **Higher Returns:** Emerging managers in VC have consistently outperformed their established counterparts since 1997, often yielding higher median IRRs. - **Innovative Strategies:** Smaller fund sizes and innovative approaches have enabled emerging managers to capture lucrative opportunities often overlooked by bigger players. - **Stronger in Downturns:** The current market downturn has sifted out the truly dedicated emerging managers, presenting a unique opportunity for savvy investors. - **Big Bets from Big Names:** Major pension plans like CalPERS and the Teacher Retirement System of Texas are increasingly backing new managers, recognizing their potential to outperform benchmarks and bring diversity to investment portfolios. #VentureCapital #PrivateEquity #EmergingManagers https://lnkd.in/gyM7cY_p

🧐 Unveiling the Potential of Emerging Managers in Private Markets 📈💼 In an era dominated by established fund managers, emerging managers are often overlooked despite their potential for significant returns, due to the risk-averse LPs. But are those LPs missing great upside and higher IRRs? **Key Points**: 1️⃣ Decline in Emerging Manager Share: Over the past decade, emerging managers' share of private market fundraising in the US has steadily decreased, reaching its lowest point in 2023 at 12.7% according to PitchBook. 2️⃣ Potential Upside: Despite limited exits and distributions, emerging managers have demonstrated the potential for significant returns, particularly in venture capital where they have consistently outperformed established GPs since 1997. “Where can you get really good returns? It’s the smaller fund sizes and emerging managers,” said Laura Thompson of Sapphire Partners, who runs an emerging VC program for the CalPERS. 3️⃣ Risk-Return Dynamics: While top-quartile emerging VC managers have shown higher median IRRs, their returns are also more volatile, necessitating a nuanced approach to risk assessment. 4️⃣ Emerging Managers in Buyout Funds: Emerging buyout managers have gained traction, with top decile funds outperforming established peers by 6.6 percentage points, suggesting a shift in the traditional performance paradigm. 5️⃣ Diversity and Differentiated Strategies: Emerging managers offer access to niche (lower mid) markets and creative roll-up strategies, not accessible through larger funds, making them "a key element of a diverse investment portfolio." said Taffi Ayodele at the NYC Office of the Comptroller. “What we don’t want to do is lock ourselves out of these high-performing, differentiated strategies for the simplicity of going with the big guys,” Ayodele said. 6️⃣ Institutional Backing: Public pension plans, such as the California Public Employees' Retirement System CalPERS and the Teacher Retirement System of Texas, are increasingly committing capital to emerging managers, recognizing their potential for success. Last year CalPERS made a $1 billion commitment to newly established private market investors, while TRS of Texas committed $155M. 7️⃣ Challenges and Opportunities: LPs face the challenge of distinguishing manager capabilities from market fluctuations, but backing dedicated emerging managers now may yield long-term benefits. “The emerging managers who are fundraising now are really dedicated,” Thompson added. ✅ Looking to raise capital for your #VCfund and increase the international pool of your LP #investors? 🤝 Need warm #LP introductions? 📝 Selling #secondaries to increase liquidity? 🧐 Looking for co-investments (Series A/Series B)? ▶ G+QUANT's link for inquiries and fund decks: https://lnkd.in/gjC_EuTE #EmergingManagers #PrivateMarkets #VentureCapital #BuyoutFunds #InvestmentStrategy #RiskAssessment #Diversification #InstitutionalInvesting

Last rites for boutique & emerging fund managers? You’ve probably seen the same news-flow I have – the last few months has been brutal for smaller, newer, emerging & boutique fund managers in North America, EU, UK, Switzerland... Those that didn’t close are bleeding assets or not raising. Almost all asset classes are impacted. And, as we said in prior posts – there are well over 1 million funds out there already shouting ‘pick me’ So, it’s game-over then? No darn way. We love boutique land, always have, always will. We’re a proud boutique ourselves. So, we’re not taking this challenge to emerging managers lying down, if this post resonates, please reach out to me or David Craig & let's get in a trench together and get you raising in the Middle East. But first we have to face some uncomfortable truths to help us counteract the challenges. Concept: Find the most ‘glass half empty’ person you know in finance and ask them if your team and fund idea is truly different, innovative and has immediately identifiable edge. If not, don’t launch. Performance: Many fund managers believe performance to lie at the heart of asset gathering. Not any more folks. We know 100’s of fund managers with super numbers and no AUM. But we also know 100’s of firms with multi-billion AUM and distinctly average performance… Fees: Most emerging fund managers charge far too much. 2 & 20 or more for a new fund run by a new firm? Really. Install a share class for early adopters at less than half this fee level for a period and make a lot of noise about it. Stories Not Stats: When’s the last time you called a friend to discuss a stat you just found? More likely you shared a story or an experience you just had. When seeking investor eyeballs, stories always win out over charts & data. Distribution: In the early years, your distribution strategy to build AUM is arguably more important than your performance particularly given the latter is completely unpredictable and probably unrepeatable. Sales: Less than 10% of early-stage funds have dedicated & staffed sales and marketing. Before the track has been created and when the firm is barely known, firms conclude that they can’t afford sales-people or distribution partners…the definition of crazy. Newsletters: Almost no-one reads them and they went out of fashion in 1998! We often see small fund management teams spend upwards of 5-10 hours per month writing a newsletter having never taken a writing course. Spend every minute of that time on Linkedin and the results will astound you. Audio/Video/Stills: When you think about writing something, could you record it instead? Photo, video and audio supported messages get multiple amounts more traction than text. If this post added some value I'd be eternally grateful if you ping me a like or a comment. Thank you!

Risk vs. Return!! Private market data continues to show that private allocations to emerging managers are a smart bet. As an emerging manager with excellent performance traction in our Veteran Ventures Fund I, of course, we believe this. But it’s more than anecdotes, it’s been a consistent trend in the data going back 25+ years. Quoting from the article: “In VC, for example, emerging managers have outperformed established GPs since 1997, consistently producing a higher median IRR than established managers. This reflects the nature of the asset class, in which a small number of funds determine the majority of returns across venture firms.” AND this…. “A major challenge for today’s LPs will be to sort out a manager’s abilities from the market’s whims. One advantage of backing up-and-comers now is that the down market has weeded the ranks of new GPs. The emerging managers who are fundraising now are really dedicated” You may be asking yourself….why is this the case? Why do emerging managers continue to outperform the larger more-established funds? We think it’s because (1) targeted investment strategies where the GP team is well positioned to create value, (2) smaller fund sizes allow focus and avoid allocation creep that comes with larger funds to deploy, and (3) a committed GP team that is entrepreneurial and hungry….like the founders they back.
