The GP stakes market is dominated by a dozen or so specialist players, including Azimut Group through Azimut Alternative Capital Partners. “LPs appreciate the unique characteristics of GPs. These are high-recurring-revenue businesses that provide downside revenue protection and yield while still offering the upside potential of private equity,” said Michael Shedosky, Managing Director at Azimut Alternative Capital Partners, in an interview with Jonathan Braude at Mergers and Acquisitions - themiddlemarket.com. In April 2024 Azimut realized its first exit in its GP Staking business, flipping its holding in New York’s Kennedy Lewis Investment Management to Petershill at Goldman Sachs Asset Management.
