Coller to buy €500m secondaries portfolio from Crédit Agricole
Coller Capital is in talks with Crédit Agricole to buy €500m worth of stakes in buyout funds, according to media reports.
The portfolio is said to comprise undrawn and drawn commitments in French mid-sized buyout funds.
The French bank is not alone in looking to dispose of private equity commitments, as tighter regulation imposes stricter capital requirements to balance risky assets. Citigroup and Barclays are also said to have put part of their private equity allocations on the secondaries market.
