The term first used to describe a series of evening radio addresses given by U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt during the Great Depression and World War II is now investment banker speak for “soft launches” of sell-side and capital raise transactions. Every company has a price, and given a market of healthy valuations, more companies are testing the waters to find out whether they can achieve that price. That process now looks a little more informal, or how you might envision a fireside chat. Price (or valuation) discovery for a company can range from a single conversation with an individual buyer to a full-blown auction with hundreds of buyers and everything in between, including a fireside chat. Given the increasing share of informal conversations, the reality is that more companies are for sale than meets the eye. While the healthy valuations publicized and press-released are encouraging more and more companies to price shop, there is a simultaneous statistical phenomenon in perceived valuations that often goes unmentioned: survivorship bias.

  • Investment Committee Memorandum NB PA Co-Investment Fund LP
    Investment Committee Memorandum NB PA Co-investment Fund LP Private Equity Asset Class February 25, 2020 Page 1 PA SERS Private Equity Investment Recommendation Investment Recommendation SERS’ Investment Office Staff recommend that the State Employees’ Retirement System Investment Committee, subject to further legal due diligence, interview Neuberger Berman Alternative Advisors, LLC (“Neuberger Berman”, “NB” or the “Firm”) at the February 25, 2020 Investment Committee Meeting to consider a potential investment of up to $200 million to a separately managed account named the NB PA Co-investment Fund LP (“the SMA”, or the “Partnership”). SERS has not previously held an investing relationship with Neuberger Berman. As this SMA has been directly negotiated to have a custom investment mandate for SERS, it is a fund of one and the proposed commitment will be the fund size. Furthermore, there is no firm closing schedule, but SERS has agreed to target completing legal due diligence and closing by June 30, 2020 should approval be attained. Investment Rationale Staff identified NB PA Co-investment Fund as a strong candidate for SERS’ capital commitment as it offers: ➢ SMA strategy represents meaningful step forward in achieving funding objectives set out in PPMAIRC report; ➢ Bespoke co-investment solution crafted to satisfy numerous SERS objectives; ➢ Partnership with a top performing co-investment intermediary; ➢ High level of coverage with SERS’ existing core PE managers determined by cross checking Neuberger Berman track record and reference calls with SERS’ PE managers. SERS will benefit from joining with Neuberger Berman’s existing capacity, relationship history and negotiating power; ➢ Extendibility of partnership to other parts of Neuberger Berman’s platform including secondaries and private credit.
