GP stakes and seeding offer a growing opportunity for investors to access the compelling economics of private market firms as a complement to traditional fund investing. By providing capital to general partners (GPs) in exchange for equity stakes in their businesses, GP stakes and seed investors benefit from a bond-like cashflow stream—via their share of fee and performance-related earnings—with the potential for significant equity upside. In this edition of TPG Insights, TPG NEXT Managing Partner Pamela Pavkov and Principal Marcus Lawrence share more on the growing GP stakes and seeding landscape and our differentiated approach to the market.
