How We Support You
Ensuring the best solutions and precise execution
Establishing an investor base
Many of our clients worked at blue-chip firms where fundraising was handled by separate teams. They have not had significant exposure to the LP world. Frequently emerging managers, they are seeking to raise capital for a specific investment, spinning out of a larger organization to establish their own firm, or launching their first institutional fundraising after previously targeting their personal networks. We understand the specific set of challenges emerging managers face and aim to build investor bases that set their organizations on a path to longstanding success.
Provide expertise that delivers clarity and results
With our hand on the industry’s pulse, Triago’s ability to follow market innovations and investor appetite allows clients to explore all sales options. Leveraging and structuring options offer countless opportunities for win-win transactions. We know the right sets of buyers and manage processes from A to Z. This limits the ask on your team’s bandwidth, without compromising outcomes, or limiting your options.
Our experience, connections & resources allow you to reach goals quickly
We place particular emphasis on bespoke fundraising campaigns – no two clients are the same. But one common goal is to maximize success while limiting resource drag. We seek to be a seamless addition to your organization, providing assistance and advice where needed, without disrupting what works.
Saving Time and Improving Hit Rates
Many of our Sponsor clients have either limited experience raising capital from institutional investors or lack the bandwidth to focus on capital raising. Frequently these clients want to raise capital for a specific deal (or series of deals) in an efficient manner that must fit within an LOI time window. We understand the risks and challenges of the deal process and bring to bear the same high level of expertise and discipline of a traditional fundraising to a single direct transaction. Many clients may also aspire to increase their average deal size and eventually raise a fund – we build the long-term relationships that make that possible.
Tailoring a bespoke solution to a one-of-a-kind problem
Our experience in private markets goes back 30+ years. What are now well-defined services in our market, with clear playbooks, once were challenges on investing’s frontier, solved by entrepreneurial LPs and GPs and innovative advisors. We look forward to finding out how we can partner with you. Triago will leverage its connections and expertise to help achieve your objectives.
Raising capital efficiently and promptly, so you can achieve victory
Identifying a target company for acquisition and emerging as the winner is time-consuming and uncertain. By running targeted processes involving highly relevant counterparts, we allow you to focus on successfully investing.
