Fund Profile

Vantage Private Equity Growth 6 (VPEG6) is an Australian Private Equity Fund of Funds established to provide investors with access to the strong returns generated by the top performing Buyout and Later Expansion Private Equity Funds in Australia.

VPEG6 is also registered with Innovation Australia as a complying investment for the Investor Visa Class 188B (IV) and Significant Investor Visa Class 188C (SIV), focused on investing in the lowest risk segment, of the mandatory 10% investment required to be made into the VCPE segment, Growth Private Equity.

Vantage has a deep understanding of the Private Equity space, access to quality managers, strong industry relationships and an investment process that selects high performance managers. A significant proportion of Australian investors have historically been unable to gain access to Private Equity. Vantage has developed a fund of funds approach to broaden investor access and participation in the Private Equity asset class.

Vantage will employ a similar diversification strategy for VPEG6′s Private Equity investments that has been successfully applied with its predecessor fund of funds. This will be achieved by diversifying investments and commitments across fund manager, financing stage, industry sector, geographic region and vintage year. Like its predecessor funds, VPEG6 will have an emphasis on investments into profitable companies, in growth industry sectors including the Healthcare, Consumer Discretionary, Education and Tourism sectors.

VPEG6 will invest in eight to ten Australian domiciled Private Equity funds, both new and existing, with a focus on later expansion and buyout funds raised or to be raised from 2024 through to 2026. Further diversification will be achieved by directly co-investing, alongside the best performing private equity managers, into exceptional underlying private company investments.

When fully invested it is envisaged that VPEG6 will ultimately have held a share in up to 70 underlying private company investments, that will be divested over time, delivering investors a targeted net return of 20% p.a. across a 4 to 6 year investment time frame.

The Investment, Audit & Risk Committee, which includes independent members, along with the executives of Vantage will provide a strong and experienced team to manage VPEG6 towards its objectives.
