More than 70 institutional investors around the world committed capital to the fundraise, including public and private pension funds, insurance companies, sovereign wealth funds, endowments, foundations, family offices and high-net-worth individuals. Institutional investors who participated in the fundraise include new and existing investors to BlackRock Private Equity Partners as well as BlackRock Alternative Investors.
“The success of this debut secondaries fundraise demonstrates the confidence our investors have placed in our strategy, which leverages the unique and expansive capabilities of the broader BlackRock platform, paired with our differentiated focus on mid-sized transactions,” said Steve Lessar and Konnin Tam, co-heads of the BlackRock Secondaries & Liquidity Solutions team.
“Private markets growth is driving further secondaries supply, and we believe that the secondary market is poised for strong future growth as limited partners and general partners alike seek more creative ways to access liquidity and realize value,” added Veena Isaac, managing director of the BlackRock Secondaries & Liquidity Solutions team.
BlackRock’s Secondaries & Liquidity Solutions (SLS) strategy seeks to capture attractive opportunities in mid-sized secondary transactions by providing liquidity solutions to limited partners and general partners of private markets firms. SLS was formed as the dedicated secondaries team within BlackRock Private Equity Partners with the hiring of Steve Lessar and Konnin Tam, co-heads of SLS, in 2018, in addition to Veena Isaac, managing director, in 2019. Today, the platform has built an experienced and tenured investment team that has a shared history of collaboration in secondaries investing over the past two decades. SLS has completed over 15 transactions across various secondary transaction types, deploying a significant amount of capital around the markets dislocation at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“As a leader in private markets investing, we have seen how secondary transactions have evolved from being an attractive segment of the private equity industry to a more widely adopted strategy for portfolio management and diversification across the full spectrum of alternative asset classes,” said Edwin Conway, Global Head of BlackRock Alternative Investors. “We are pleased to have developed a secondaries offering that will help to deliver differentiated investment solutions to investors across our alternatives platform.”
The Fund seeks to take advantage of an evolving secondaries market that is well-positioned to capitalize on various forms of market dislocation, as well as structural growth drivers around a maturing global private equity space. SLS is highly selective in seeking top risk-return opportunities across both traditional and non-traditional secondaries, including single and multi-fund portfolios, manager-led restructurings, and other opportunistic investments.
BlackRock Alternative Investors provides a comprehensive range of private equity strategies and solutions, including BlackRock Private Equity Partners, which encompasses commingled private equity programs and custom separate accounts focused on investing in Primary Funds, Direct Co-investments, and Secondaries through the Secondaries & Liquidity Solutions team. BlackRock Long Term Private Capital is the firm’s direct private equity strategy. Together, these private equity strategies manage over USD

Risk Warnings
Capital at risk. The value of investments and the income from them can fall as well as rise and are not guaranteed. Investors may not get back the amount originally invested.
Past performance is not a reliable indicator of current or future results and should not be the sole factor of consideration when selecting a product or strategy.
Changes in the rates of exchange between currencies may cause the value of investments to diminish or increase. Fluctuation may be particularly marked in the case of a higher volatility fund and the value of an investment may fall suddenly and substantially. Levels and basis of taxation may change from time to time.
Fund Specific Risks
Restriction on withdrawal. The Fund is not intended to be a short-term investment and has no certainty of returns. An investment in the Fund is a long-term commitment. It is anticipated that there may be a significant period of time (up to ten years or more) before all of the Fund’s Portfolio Investments are fully realised. And Interests in the Fund nor any Fund investments are expected to be, freely assignable or transferable. Except in extremely limited circumstances, withdrawals from the Fund will not be permitted, and it is not anticipated that the Fund will be permitted to withdraw from its Investments. Investors must be prepared to bear the risks of owning Interests, including the obligation to make capital contributions, for an extended period of time.
Lack of available investments. The Fund will be competing for exposure to investments in a highly competitive market, against other funds, as well as individuals, financial institutions, strategic players and other investors, some of which may have greater resources than the Investment Manager. The availability of investment opportunities generally will be subject to market conditions. There can be no assurance that the Fund will be able to locate, attain and exit investments that satisfy its investment objectives, or that the Fund will be able to fully invest its committed capital.
Concentration risk. The Fund may participate in a limited number of investments and so the return of the Fund may be materially and adversely affected by any unfavourable performance of even a single investment. In addition, investors have no assurance as to the degree of diversification of the fund’s investments, either by geographic region or transaction type. To the extent the Fund has concentrated investments in a particular industry, geography, vintage or any other characteristic, its investments will become more susceptible to fluctuations in value resulting from adverse economic and business conditions.
Valuation risk. The Fund will be exposed to securities and other assets that will not have readily assessable market values. The valuation of such securities and other assets is inherently subjective and subject to increased risk that the information utilised to value such assets or to create the price models may be inaccurate or subject to other error. Due to a wide variety of market factors and the nature of the securities and assets to which the Fund will be exposed, there is no guarantee that any value determined will represent the value that will be realised on the eventual disposition of the Fund’s investments or that would, in fact, be realised upon an immediate disposition of such investment.

Past performance is not indicative of future results. The value of investments and the income from them can fall as well as rise and is not guaranteed. You may not get back the amount originally invested. Changes in the rates of exchange between currencies may cause the value of investments to diminish or increase. Fluctuations may be particularly marked in the case of a higher volatility fund and the value of an investment may fall suddenly and substantially.
All investments risk the loss of capital. No guarantee or representation is made that any private equity investment or fund offered or sponsored by PEP will achieve its investment objective. In addition, there are risks associated with investing in private equity that are not applicable to typical investments in the public equity markets. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following: private equity investments are speculative and involve a high degree of risk; an investor could lose all or a substantial amount of his or her investment; interests in private equity investments are illiquid and there is no secondary market nor is one expected to develop for interests in such investments or any fund offered or sponsored by PEP; there are significant restrictions on transferring private equity investments; private equity investments experience volatile performance; private equity funds are often concentrated and lack diversification and regulatory oversight; private equity funds have high fees and expenses (including “carried interest”) that will reduce such investments’ returns and a private equity investment or a fund offered or sponsored PEP may invest in other funds which themselves charge management fees and carried interest (typically,
Please note that, generally, an investor in a PEP Fund may not transfer, assign, or otherwise dispose of his/her/its interests in such PEP Fund (the “Interests”), except with the prior written consent of the general partner of the relevant PEP Fund, which has sole discretion regarding the granting of such consent. In addition, investors who do not fund their capital commitments when due will be subject to severe penalties, including forfeiture of their Interests. Investors should carefully review the relevant PEP Fund’s PPM, when it becomes available, and, specifically, the “Certain Risk Factors” section.
Interests have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any other U.S. or non-U.S. securities laws, will not be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. persons unless the securities are registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available, and will be offered and sold for investment pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and in compliance with any other applicable U.S. and non-U.S. securities laws. The Interests may not be transferred or resold except as permitted under the Securities Act and any applicable U.S. or non-U.S. securities laws. The Interests have not been recommended by any U.S. federal, other U.S. or non-U.S. securities commission or regulatory authority. Furthermore, the foregoing authorities have not confirmed the accuracy or determined the adequacy of these materials. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense. Interests are not insured by the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Company or any government agency, are not guaranteed by any bank and are subject to investment risks, including the loss of the principal amount invested. Investors should be aware that they may be required to bear the financial risks of an investment in the Interests for an indefinite period of time because the Interests (i) cannot be sold unless they are subsequently registered under all applicable securities laws or an exemption from registration exists and (ii) are subject to the restrictions on transfer contained in the limited partnership agreement of the relevant PEP Fund.
Private equity investments are less transparent than public investments and private equity investors are afforded less regulatory protection than investors in registered public securities. Private equity funds are sold in private placements and may be offered only to individuals who are both “qualified purchasers” (as defined in U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) and “accredited investors” (as defined in the Securities Act) and for whom the investment is otherwise suitable.
