SLPET’s objective is to achieve long-term total returns through investing in a diversified portfolio of leading private equity buyout funds and direct co-investments, a majority of which have a European focus, with exposure principally managed through the primary and secondary funds markets. No size or geographic restrictions apply to fund selection. There is currently no available benchmark that the board deems an appropriate measure of SLPET’s investment performance.
