Access unique avenues with co-investments.
Invest directly in exciting companies alongside the world’s leading fund managers.
Leverage our global PE network to access exclusive deals
Moonfare maintains close relationships with over 250 top-tier fund managers which enables us to curate a selection of high-quality co-investment deals rarely available elsewhere.
Lower fees than traditional private equity
Moonfare sources co-investment deals from GPs on a lower fee- and carried interest-basis, improving IRR potential and providing an opportunity for a shorter time to net positive cash flow.
Potentially higher returns
Co-investment funds usually have a shorter capital deployment phase and can outperform traditional PE funds in the long term due to a reduced fee structure and the growth potential of underlying companies¹.
Meet Moonfare’s Co-Investment Committee

The co-investment team is led by our Head of Private Equity, Philip Meschke. The Investment Committee includes three outside members and is made up of industry heavyweights who have held leadership roles at KKR, Permira, Union Bancaire Privée, Apax, Lehman Brothers and other leading firms.
