Private Equity

Private equity is the largest and most established of Lazard CL’s asset-class practices, reflecting the tenure of both Lazard’s Private Capital Advisory group and Campbell Lutyens in the industry.

Our teams support buyout, growth equity, and venture managers of all sizes, from lower-middle-market and emerging managers, to some of the largest, most recognized franchises in the industry, across fundraising, secondary transactions, and GP capital advisory.

This tenure provides a market advantage: our teams have advised clients in navigating multiple capital cycles, observed fund structures and LP preferences evolve in real time, and built institutional memory underpinned by the industry's largest proprietary datasets. Clients benefit from advisors who have helped shape the industry’s transaction architecture, from continuation vehicles to GP financings, alongside access to the industry’s deepest network of institutional LP relationships and unique market intelligence.
