| The Fairview Capital investment team has created a series of co-mingled and tailored, single investor programs designed to capture superior investment opportunities in traditional venture capital and private equity markets as well as specialized private market sectors. All Fairview funds are qualified ERISA investors and general partners of the funds are registered advisers with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Fairview’s portfolios reflect a range of industry expertise among partnerships, including information technology, communications, health care and life sciences. Geographically, most are national in scope, while some are more regionally focused. We spread investments of each new fund over a number of vintage years to avoid concentrations in economic cycles. Fairview Capital creates portfolios focused on private markets solely on a discretionary basis, and has no other lines of business. As a result, we avoid conflicts and are highly specialized and focused – a prized asset to institutional investors that want to diversify their portfolio mixes, but may not have the staff and access for investing in private equity markets or the time to conduct extensive due diligence. Our most common practice for returning capital to investors is through cash distributions. While each fund is tailored to meet the needs of its institutional investors, most prefer that we liquidate securities distributed to Fairview as partnership investments mature.

Our venture capital investments are primarily focused on top tier, experienced venture capital firms, built through vintage relationships with the fund managers. We also enrich Fairview portfolios by developing relationships with the emerging generation of top-performing venture capitalists, many of whom are seasoned alums of blue chip firms or experienced company builders. We diversify these portfolios by selecting partnerships investing in all stages along the venture capital continuum.
Our more diversified portfolios often balance venture capital investments with other private equity opportunities, including later stage investments and buy-outs. These investments provide exposure to a broader mix of strategies and a corresponding change to the portfolios’ risk/reward profile. In the specialized private market sector, Fairview pioneered the creation of portfolios with exposure to ethnically diverse and underserved markets, investing capital through partnerships employing a variety of investment strategies. |
