IPEM TV 2020: direct investing still tricky, says Coller's Francois Aguerre
While at IPEM 2020 in Cannes at the end of January, Unquote's Denise Ko Genovese spoke to Coller Capital partner Francois Aguerre. Aguerre explained why co-investments will likely remain a preferable option for large LPs as opposed to ramping up direct investing activities – not least because of the struggle to attract and retain top talent when competing with PE firms. He also shared his thoughts on the continued growth of the secondaries space.
