BlackRock Secondaries & Liquidity Solutions

Private Equity New York, United States ·Founded 2019

Overview

BlackRock Secondaries & Liquidity Solutions is a division of BlackRock specializing in private market secondaries investments. The team focuses on acquiring interests in existing private funds and companies to provide liquidity solutions and diversification for clients. Their approach targets inefficiencies across the global secondary market, particularly in the mid-sized segment, where they can be highly selective, investing in fewer than 1% of evaluated deals. The team leverages BlackRock's extensive network, platform insights, and risk management capabilities to optimize and protect equity value. Their seasoned investment team offers unmatched global investment insights and diligence resources from investment professionals in 70 offices across 36 countries. BlackRock's differentiated risk management capabilities and technology platform further enhance their ability to deliver alpha and immediate diversification for clients. The team is co-headed by Lisa Sun, Jarid Colucci, and Derek Krouner, with Christopher Rock serving as Head of Investor Relations for SLS. Their investment philosophy emphasizes a flexible and opportunistic approach, targeting inefficiencies across the global secondary market, particularly in the fast-growing and often less competitive mid-sized segment. This strategy aims to provide clients with attractive entry points, immediate diversification, and shorter holding periods compared to primary private equity funds. By leveraging BlackRock's global platform and risk management capabilities, the team seeks to deliver value and liquidity solutions to clients in the private market secondaries space.
