Avanto Opportunities V (AO V)

Access to selected investment opportunities in the private market

AO V invests in high-conviction opportunities in the private equity secondary market, with selective direct investments in the unlisted market.

Avanto Opportunities V (AO V) is a private market investment fund focused on long-term value creation. We acquire existing interests in private equity funds from investors looking to exit their positions before the fund's natural maturity (secondaries). We also participate in GP-led transactions, where managers restructure portfolios and offer investors the chance to buy in on new terms. In addition, we make selective direct investments in private companies (co-investments). We invest where we know the structure, understand the counterparty's motivation, and see value others overlook. We invest our own money in AO V alongside our investors.

AO V Investment Philosophy

We seek extraordinary opportunities in the private market where mispricing occurs because the seller needs liquidity or has other motivations, not because the asset is weak. Secondary market transactions give us access to mature portfolios at attractive prices, with a shorter time horizon than traditional private equity. Through an extensive network of industry and business contacts, we identify opportunities early and regularly receive off-market offers. Our goal is to at least double invested capital within five years, as we have in our closed AO funds.

Risk Profile

AO V is a high-risk, high-potential-return fund open to experienced investors. If you're looking for a fund that delivers a few percentage points above a benchmark index with low volatility, this isn't the right fund for you.

StrategY
Our co-investors care about transparency, good discussion, and results. We invest our own money in the funds and have short decision-making lines and clear accountability.

Founding partner
We don't look for what everyone else is looking for. If everyone sees the same thing, it's already priced in. Avanto has the patience required to generate returns, and the courage to stand alone a little longer than is comfortable.

Instead of hunting for extreme downturns, we found it more effective to hunt for extreme upturns. They're actually more common than people think.

Successful investing is about more than numbers. It's about sharing perspectives and creating value together with other investors.
