Risk Management

The private equity secondary market has been experiencing unprecedented growth, offering investors a unique avenue to optimize liquidity, rebalance portfolios, and gain exposure to high-quality assets. At 0100 Europe in Amsterdam (April 2-4), Ricardo Miró-Quesada, Partner and Head of Private Equity at Arcano Capital, will be sharing key insights into the evolution of the secondary market, investment strategies, and sectoral opportunities in Europe and beyond at the panel “Watershed Moment for PE Secondaries in 2025”, together with Daniel Rygg from Turnstone Private Equity; Joaquín Alexandre Ruiz from EIF; Roman Hürlimann, Kline Hill Partners; Charles Aponso, Quilvest Capital Partners, and moderated by Gereon Tewes from The New Amsterdam Group.

The private equity market in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland (DACH region) is experiencing a period of transformation. As fundraising remains challenging and investor priorities shift, LPs are reassessing their allocations, weighing risk and return, and placing greater emphasis on ESG-driven investment strategies.

In this conversation, Volker discusses SwanCap’s key investment criteria, the evolving co-investment landscape, and how ESG plays a growing role in decision-making. He also explores why co-investments provide LPs with financial upside and a deep understanding of GP strategies and value creation mechanisms—an invaluable advantage when making future commitments.
