02/ local context

Choosing an agent for London

A London office can help a manager reach investors, but location alone does not establish fit.

Ask who will lead the mandate, which LP segments the team covers and which overlapping funds it represents.

The list focuses on firms with a stated London base and fund placement activity.

It includes specialists in private equity and firms that place several private markets strategies.

Compare the people who will work on your fund, relevant fundraising mandates, investor relationships, concurrent clients, fees and regulatory status.

Our placement agent fees guide covers the fee questions in more detail.
