RCP Advisors Closes Secondary Opportunity Fund V on $1.26 Billion, Exceeding Target Size

RCP Advisors, a private equity firm specializing in North American small buyout strategies, are pleased to announce the final close of RCP Secondary Opportunity Fund V, LP (“RCP SOF V” or the “Fund”). The Fund was oversubscribed, closing on $1.26 billion in capital commitments, exceeding its target of $1 billion.1 The Fund has a broad base of limited partners, comprised of both new and existing investors, including high net worth individuals, pension funds, endowments, foundations, and insurance companies.

RCP SOF V represents a continuation of the investment style and approach that was established with RCP Advisors’ predecessor secondary funds. The Fund will target investments, primarily through secondary market purchases or other secondary transactions (through both LP and GP-led transactions), in private equity funds that generally focus on leveraged buyout, growth, or restructuring transactions.

“The positive market reaction to RCP SOF V shows that our steadfast commitment to the small buyout fund space resonates with investors now more than ever,” said Jon Madorsky, RCP Managing Partner and Co-Portfolio Manager.

“We raised an oversubscribed secondary pool of capital in a very short timeframe. We believe this was due to our strong prior performance and partnership with our LPs, our differentiated focus, and a very attractive secondary buying opportunity. We look forward to a successful investment period for RCP SOF V,” said Raj Patel, RCP Partner and Co-Portfolio Manager.

  1. $1.26 billion includes the GP commitment.  
  2. Includes RCP’s discretionary funds and non-discretionary separately managed accounts since inception, including those that have since been wound down.
  3. Includes investments that have been sold and/or written-off.

“Committed capital” primarily reflects the capital commitments associated with our SMAs, focused commingled funds and advisory accounts advised by RCP since the firm’s inception in 2001 (including funds that have since been sold, dissolved, or wound down and certain historical advisory accounts for which RCP’s advisory contracts have expired). We include capital commitments in our calculation of committed capital if (a) we have full discretion over the investment decisions in an account or have responsibility or custody of assets or (b) we do not have full discretion to make investment decisions but play a role in advising the client on asset allocation, performing investment manager due diligence and recommending investments for the client’s portfolio and/or monitoring and reporting on their investments. For our discretionary SMAs and commingled funds, as well as for our non-discretionary advisory accounts for which RCP is responsible for advising on all investments within the client’s portfolio, committed capital is calculated based on aggregate capital commitments to such accounts. For non-discretionary accounts where RCP is responsible for advising only a portion of the client portfolio investments, committed capital is calculated as capital commitments by the client to those underlying investments which were made based on RCP’s recommendation or with respect to which RCP advises the client. Committed capital does not include (i) certain historical non-discretionary advisory accounts no longer under advisement by RCP, (ii) assets managed or advised by the Private Capital Unit, or by the HB Unit which are independent business lines of RCP 2, (iii) capital commitments to funds managed or sponsored by RCP’s affiliated (but independently operated) management companies (including, without limitation, Five Points, TrueBridge, Enhanced, Westech and Qualitas), and (iv) RCP’s ancillary products or services.
