With investing experience and a proven track record, the dedicated teams operate a selective investment process for joint control investments with co-investors. In order to select co-investment opportunities that offer superior value, Access’ dedicated co-investment teams apply, in addition to the work conducted by the lead investor, an additional layer of due diligence based on an independent analysis of the target asset. Access is generally a top three investor in the primary underlying funds. The advisory board representation of Access on primary investee funds provides the team with strong risk control through deeper insight into the underlying fund managers and early involvement on any material issues during the lives of the funds. Access seeks to obtain board seats, observer rights and/or other legal protections in order to control the value of its investments.
