Natixis Private Equity's business model rests on a culture of partnership established with autonomous management teams who maintain direct, ongoing relations with their fund providers.

The professional investors' growing interest in the French market (2 nd ranking European country, accounting for 20 % of the American market), their need for transparency (particularly funds of funds and pension funds) and the increasing internationalisation of sources of capital have led Natixis Private Equity to reflect on the set up of a specific department dedicated to those investors to supplement the relations they already have with the equity management teams.

Throughout all of its subsidiaries, Natixis Private Equity thus has a global vision of the private equity market and unequalled shareholding experience which enables it to present the investor community with offers that meet their expectations.
