Venture Capital for Institutional Investors - Can you afford to miss it?
Technology and science are changing our world more deeply than ever. The innovation cycles are becoming shorter, new products penetrate markets faster and with transformative dynamics. As a result, start-up companies have been able to generate enormous valuations just a few years after the start-up and can generate attractive returns for your investors.
In the current market environment, with interest rates on highs, equities and real estate markets, institutional investors are also looking for attractive returns. In the US, pension funds are investing around 5% of their funds in venture capital, while in Switzerland, this ratio is in the low-order range.
