At a time of rising interest in the private equity sector, iPEIT, the Initiative for Private Equity Investment Trusts, has been formed to improve awareness and understanding among retail investors, smaller institutions and investment managers not already involved in private equity investment, about private equity in general and PEITs in particular. Even among large institutions which invest in private equity limited partnership funds, this complementary route to the sector is not always appreciated.

iPEIT aims to clarify a number of issues that commonly arise in members’ conversations with investors, including liquidity, net asset value, cash drag and the difference between PEITs and VCTs – a common confusion. iPEIT’s website (www.ipeit.com), together with links to data and proprietary research shortly to be published, offers explanation and information on all aspects of private equity and PEITs. iPEITs founding members include HgCapital Trust Plc, Dunedin Enterprise Investment Trust Plc and Electra Private Equity Plc.
