We build private asset portfolios for our investors founded on
the unique attributes of our investment strategy
Secondary Market Expertise
Small-Balance Focus
Risk Mitigation
Relationship-Driven
The Traveller strategy is built on the principle of going where capital is scarce: overlooked, smaller-scale private-market opportunities where fewer dollars compete and inefficiencies persist
Creating Value through Small-Balance Investing
LP-Led Secondaries
Our core portfolio focus is on the acquisition of small-balance LP interests across a wide range of private equity strategies
LP-Led Secondaries
The core focus of Traveller Capital is the acquisition of LP interests in private funds from existing investors, either as a single interest or a portfolio of diversified interests. The firm is differentiated within the secondary market through the speed, discretion, and flexibility we bring to small balance accounts that larger secondary platforms often overlook.
We actively pursue U.S. limited-partner interests across buyout, growth equity, venture capital, private credit, infrastructure, natural resources, fund-of-funds, secondary vehicles, and co-investments. Our mandate covers the full spectrum of a fund life, from commitment stage to tail-end positions nearing liquidation, allowing us to meet the liquidity needs of sellers.
If you or an institution you represent is considering selling one or more LP interests, Contact Us
Direct Secondaries
Our private fund focus extends to liquidity solutions for stock in privately held businesses from current shareholders
Direct Secondaries
Similar to the acquisition of LP interests, Traveller Capital will also acquire direct, minority equity positions from individual shareholders seeking an exit within privately held businesses.
We are interested in U.S.-based companies with an experienced and proven management team, a compelling growth story and a conservative balance sheet. As an established and experienced buyer, we can work with you and company management to facilitate necessary approvals and solve issues around the sale and transfer of privately held stock.
If you or an institution you represent is a shareholder in a private business seeking early liquidity, Contact Us.
Strategic Partnerships
We selectively invest alongside managers in high conviction opportunities that enhance portfolio construction, including primaries and co-investments
Strategic Partnerships
Over the last 20 years, Traveller Capital and its principal have built long-standing relationships with fund managers we know well and have partnered with across multiple market cycles. These are managers whose values are aligned with our own, and who have demonstrated deep domain expertise, established track records, and have built enduring organizations.
In addition to our solutions providing liquidity to smaller LPs invested with these managers, we selectively consider seasoned primary commitments and co-investments that enhance and augment aspects of our portfolio construction.
