Coller International Partners VI (CIP VI)

Jeremy Coller serves as Chief Investment Officer and Managing Partner and has overseen the firm's secondaries strategy since its inception in the early 1990s. Coller was among the first institutional investors to treat LP interest purchases as a stand-alone asset class rather than a distressed brokerage trade. All investment committee decisions for flagship vehicles, including CIP VI, run through a centralized process he ultimately leads.

Coller's deal flow originates from a network of brokers, general partners, and limited partners built over 30 years of secondaries market activity. The firm is frequently approached by pension funds, banks, and endowments seeking to restructure legacy private equity portfolios. Unlike multi-strategy firms that source secondaries alongside primary fund commitments, Coller operates as a pure secondaries buyer, which eliminates conflicts of interest and encourages GPs to bring it into complex transactions.

CIP VI is a dedicated secondaries fund. It acquires existing limited partner interests in private equity, venture capital, and credit funds — meaning it does not make primary commitments to new fundraises. The vehicle also executes GP-led secondaries, including single-asset continuation vehicles and preferred equity financings, but always from the position of a liquidity provider purchasing seasoned assets.

CIP VI typically acquires interests in buyout, growth equity, venture capital, and private credit funds. Confirmed predecessor funds have held positions in vehicles managed by TPG, Silver Lake, and Lexington Partners (public record). The fund does not concentrate by vintage or strategy; its portfolio construction depends on the available secondary supply at any given time, which has historically skewed toward large buyout funds in North America and Western Europe.

Coller Capital operates as a limited partnership with advisory entities in London and New York. CIP VI is a Delaware-domiciled limited partnership, consistent with the firm's prior flagship commingled vehicles. The London office houses the firm's original management company, while New York serves as the principal US advisory and deal-execution hub.

Coller does not publicly disclose individual fund sizes or performance for CIP VI. Predecessor vehicles have been reported: CIP VII closed on approximately $9 billion in 2020, and CIP VIII targeted $10 billion in 2022 (per Bloomberg, 2022). Earlier vintage sizes are not consistently public. The firm releases aggregate capital raised figures on its website but does not break out performance by fund.

Coller has historically avoided direct co-investment programs or primary fund-of-funds activity, distinguishing it from most large secondaries managers. This pure-play approach means the firm does not maintain relationships that could compromise its position as an independent liquidity provider. The team's 2023 investment in a data-science capability reinforces its focus on pricing and structuring rather than portfolio company origination.
