Investment thesis
Franklin Park focuses exclusively on private market strategies, investing in professionally managed funds and direct co-investments across private equity, private debt, and venture capital. It seeks best-in-class opportunities capable of generating strong absolute and excess returns over the long term, favoring less efficient market segments and managers with sustainable competitive advantages. In venture capital it targets seed, early, and late stage funds primarily in technology and life sciences, emphasizing value-added earlier-stage strategies and managers with established relationships with entrepreneurs and other VCs. Products include commingled fund-of-funds, custom separate accounts, and advisory accounts.
