INVESTMENT THESIS

Why This Strategy

Growth-oriented clients increasingly expect access to opportunities unavailable through public markets. Competitive pressure from peers offering private equity exposure is accelerating. The challenge is identifying high-quality managers who will consistently seek to generate alpha and true differentiation for your firm.

BIP Capital provides curated access to multi-stage venture and growth equity through 15+ years1 of institutional-grade diligence.

01

Continuous Capital Model

First institutional positions of $1M-$5M, with follow-on tranches of $2M-$15M for breakout companies where we maintain an information advantage.

02

Active Business Building

A vertically integrated internal team of sector-focused subject matter experts who guide portfolio companies from pre-diligence to exit.

03

Multi-Stage Exposure

Seed through growth stage — capturing value across the full company lifecycle rather than a single entry point.

04

Maximum Return Dispersion

Early-stage markets exhibit the widest gap between top and bottom quartile managers. Manager selection at this stage has the greatest impact on outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does equity fit into a diversified private markets allocation?
BIP's equity strategy serves as the alpha-seeking component within a balanced private markets portfolio. When combined with private credit's income and downside protection, the allocation delivers mean-variance optimization - targeting higher risk-adjusted returns than either strategy alone.
Why offer both traditional funds and an evergreen structure?
Different advisory firms and client profiles require different access points. Traditional funds serve qualified purchasers seeking concentrated, vintage-specific exposure. The Evergreen BDC serves a broader client base with lower minimums and no capital call complexity — enabling firms to scale equity exposure across more client segments.
How should advisory firms communicate venture exposure to conservative clients?
BIP Capital provides client-ready materials positioning venture as the alpha-seeking allocation within a diversified private market sleeve, complementing credit.

The senior investment professionals responsible for the strategies described herein are the same individuals who were principally responsible for the corresponding strategies at the predecessor entities, using a substantially similar investment process.

  2. BIP Ventures Evergreen BDC is a privately offered, externally managed, non-diversified closed-end investment company that is regulated as a business development company (a “BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).
  3. Beginning in 2026, the Fund intends to commence a share repurchase program in which it intends to repurchase annually between 4% and 9% of outstanding Shares (by number of Shares). The repurchase program is subject to approval of the BDC’s Board of Trustees, availability of liquidity in the BDC, and an overall transaction limit of 9% of the total outstanding shares of the BDC. Accordingly, there is no guarantee that liquidity may be available.

Investments in venture capital involve significant risks, including: (i) total loss of capital — many early-stage companies fail; (ii) illiquidity — investments may be held for 7–10+ years with no secondary market; (iii) J-curve effect; (iv) dispersion risk; and (v) valuation subjectivity.
