VANTAGE HOLDS A UNIQUE POSITION IN THE AUSTRALIAN PRIVATE EQUITY LANDSCAPE
Over the last 20-years Vantage has built long-term relationships with best-in-class Australian mid-market private equity managers.
Vantage is a major investor in many of Australia’s leading mid-market private equity funds.
As a long-term investor into these funds, Vantage is in a unique position to receive opportunities and insights that are extremely difficult for individual investors to access.
Underlying funds are often significantly oversubscribed and access is generally restricted to institutional investors.
Vantage’s relationships and tenure within Australia’s Private Equity market are virtually impossible to recreate.
