Optimize your portfolio with The secondary market

Liquidity Needs

If you’re looking to free up capital for new opportunities or meet financial obligations, selling fund positions provides an efficient way to gain liquidity.

Portfolio Rebalancing

Over time, your portfolio might become overweight in private equity due to uneven performance across asset classes. Selling fund positions helps realign your portfolio with strategic asset allocation targets.

Portfolio Optimization

If a fund position underperforms or no longer aligns with your investment objectives, selling it allows you to reallocate capital to better opportunities while reducing administrative and financial burdens.

Crystallize Returns

Lock in realized gains and redeploy capital into new opportunities. Secondaries provide flexibility to maintain a strong portfolio and potentially improve overall returns.

Reduce J-Curve Effect

Investing in the secondary market allows buyers to acquire seasoned assets with established track records. This reduces the J-curve effect often associated with new investments, accelerating cash flows and mitigating risk.

Portfolio Diversification

Diversify your portfolio by gaining exposure to a wide range of assets, sectors, and geographies. Diversification is one way to help manage risk and enhance portfolio performance.

Access Established Funds

The secondary market provides access to high-quality funds that may be closed to new investors in the primary market, allowing you to tap into blue-chip managers and opportunities.

Pricing Opportunity

Secondary transactions often come with attractive pricing, sometimes at a discount to the fund’s net asset value (NAV). This pricing structure can offer opportunities for investors to achieve
their investment objectives.

What Users Say About Palico

“We like that you [Palico] help the smaller end of the market to get secondary market liquidity. Most private market investors don’t hold positions in the hundreds of millions and hence don’t get serviced by the larger advisory firms. There was clearly a gap in the secondary market where Palico now plays an important role.

Andres Hefti - Partner

“Palico has developed a very useful platform, with a smooth user experience and a growing inventory of opportunities, to match buyers and sellers in secondaries transactions that otherwise might not get done in a traditional process.”

Reji Vettasseri - Lead Portfolio Manager Private Markets Funds and Mandates

“We applaud Palico’s approach and achievement in developing the effective digital solution to match the buyers and sellers with smaller size transactions, where there is an obvious gap in the market. The UI/UX design of the platform is very impressive. Not to mention that the team of Palico is very professional and dedicated to supporting each transaction."

Tokyo-based Growth & PE Secondary Investment Firm

“We like Palico as a discovery tool as it has allowed us to learn about new funds we have never crossed before. This is especially useful for us as a small team — to have access to & explore a wide range of opportunities, all on one platform.”

David Tom - Co-Managing Partner

“We at Catalus Capital have found Palico to be an innovative platform helping us source differentiated investment opportunities. The Palico team is continually pushing the boundaries of applying technology to improve the liquidity of private capital.”

Marek J. Olszewski - Managing Partner

"Palico and its team understand the needs of professional secondary buyers like us well, and as such have created an intuitive platform and a smooth experience. Since being on the platform, we have been introduced to interesting and consistent deal flows on Palico, including from our focus area in Asia."
