Invesco Private Capital (IPC)

Invesco Private Capital (IPC) is one of the oldest private equity managers with fund of funds capabilities in the industry, having invested in the private markets since 1982 through its predecessor firms. Since inception, IPC has used the same strategy, methodology and process to commit $3.9 billion to more than 430 venture capital and leveraged buyout partnerships in the United States and abroad.*

Investing in private equity through a globally diversified fund of funds portfolio offers investors an efficient means to capture the strong return potential in the asset class with effective risk reduction. With a 24-year consistent presence in the private equity markets, IPC has earned an industry reputation for excellence. The unpredictable nature of economic cycles and the illiquid characteristics of the private equity markets work against investors who attempt to time their exposure to the asset class. IPC believes that a more fruitful investment strategy is to gain broad exposure by investing in partnerships with disciplined managers, spread over a variety of vintage years.
