Secondaries are here to stay in 2021. While the exit market remains comparatively slow to exit levels pre-Covid, it is expected that secondaries will remain a preferred option for GPs and LPs alike.

The secondary market bounced back fairly quickly after the first lockdown last year, with GP-led situations being particularly popular. This year, GP-leds, in particular, are expected to be an option of choice again, both for LPs who want liquidity and their GP counterparts who don’t yet want to sell the portfolio companies at a suboptimal time in the market for valuations.

Secondaries funds have had to adapt and in the past 12 months, and we have continued to see this segment of the market remains resilient and continuously evolving.

In this roundtable, we will discuss: the response of the secondaries market to the pandemic, the growth in GP-led solutions, the evolution of the market, and predictions on the next big thing for secondaries.
