FAQ
To outperform listed markets, the main feature of private equity is that it remains illiquid. The duration of your investment therefore depends on the life of the company and its successful development.
However, the possibility of investing via dedicated investment vehicles with an ISIN code increases the liquidity of your position.
By way of comparison, when you invest in a fund, it’s often for a minimum of 7 or even 10 to 12 years, with no intermediate liquidity. Except for the behemoths…in which it is notoriously impossible to invest.
No, but a company’s willingness to organize/guarantee liquidity is an obvious selection criterion for us. However, at INVEST DIRECT’s instigation, companies are endeavoring to set up regular periods of liquidity. Securitization greatly facilitates liquidity but does not guarantee it.
Insofar as you are investing in private debt with an expected yield at subscription, this yield is predictable.
In the case of an equity investment in a company, this will depend on your entry price and the date on which you sell your shares.

At no time will your money pass through INVEST DIRECT. Your investment is made directly with the company you have chosen, or by your asset manager via a custodian bank if the transaction is securitized.
