Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.

Today’s episode is one of evergreen importance. We talk with one of the pioneers in the evergreen fund space.

Rob Collins, a Partner, Co-Head of Private Wealth, and Head of the New York office and a member of the Global Executive Board at Partners Group, a $147B+ AUM alternative asset manager, joins the podcast to discuss how Partners Group started the evergreen fund space in the early 2000s.

Rob has deeply evolved perspectives on both evergreen funds and working with the wealth channel. He leads Partners Group’s US private wealth and defined contribution practice and is President, Portfolio Manager, and Member of the Board of Managers of Partners Group Private Equity (Master Fund), LLC. He also chairs Partners Group USA’s Investment Committee. He joined the firm in 2005, only 4 years after Partners Group was the first firm to launch an evergreen private equity structure.

Rob and I had a fascinating conversation about what evergreen funds are, the mechanics of how they work, and why they can make sense for investors – both individual and institutions. We discussed:

  • What Partners Group saw in the early 2000s that made them decide to create the evergreen private equity fund structure.
  • Why it’s taken the industry time to adopt evergreen funds.
  • How to think about returns with evergreen funds.
  • Why institutions — in addition to wealth advisors — have used evergreen funds.
  • Why the time, money, and liability questions of private equity fund investments make evergreens a fit for many advisors.
  • The importance of compounding and how it relates to evergreen funds.
  • The challenges and nuances with managing evergreen funds.
  • Why “life is too short for capital calls.”
  • How does private equity go from being sold to being bought?
  • What can the industry do to continue to remove pain points for the wealth channel?

Thanks Rob for coming on the show to share your thoughts and wisdom on private markets and the importance of one of the biggest trends in private markets, evergreen funds. We hope you enjoy.
