A New Era in Private Equity Investing

The Apogem Evergreen Fund is designed to provide diversified exposure to all segments of the private equity market with a core focus on middle market and lower middle market companies. We believe middle market companies offer better valuations, more opportunities for value creation and higher long-term total return potential. Middle market companies are also not typically reliant upon the IPO market for liquidity, benefiting from a diverse buyer pool upon exit including private equity firms and strategic acquirers.

The Fund maintains exposure to multiple general partners with a focus on sector specialists and operationally driven sponsors. We believe providing exposure to a wide range of private equity sponsors across all sizes and sectors creates better investor outcomes.

The Fund's goal is to provide diversified private equity exposure primarily through direct co-investments, complemented by exposure to secondary investments. The strategy seeks to achieve attractive return potential while minimizing overall fee drag through its focus on co-investments. A co-investment focused approach may also support more sustainable returns throughout a market cycle.

The Evergreen Fund portfolio management team has significant experience managing registered funds and Evergreen private equity vehicles. We believe this experience is critical when it comes to portfolio management, asset allocation, cash flow planning and most importantly, liquidity management.
