Thesis
Their investment strategy is multi-faceted, focusing on identifying attractive themes and then determining the most direct exposure. A significant portion of their capital, around $5 billion, is dedicated to GP stakes in private equity and private credit firms, driven by a belief in the growth of private assets. They also engage in direct private equity investments, co-investments, and fund investments, with a notable interest in healthcare services buyouts. CAZ is an active participant in the GP stake secondaries market, deploying substantial capital, including $700 million in 2024 for GP stake secondaries alone. Their venture capital arm aims to foster innovation, and they also invest in income-producing real estate and infrastructure. Geographically, their focus is primarily North America, although their investor network is global, spanning 41 countries. CAZ acts as both a lead and follow investor, utilizing fund commitments, direct co-investments, and SPVs. They are also committed to ESG principles. The firm has the capacity for large check sizes, evaluating over 500 potential investments annually, with minimums of $9,000,000 for some offerings.
