LPs - how and why
on the website of HIG Capital, one of the bigger PE funds, they list a bunch of their investors ("Our investors include some of the world's leading investment banks, financial institutions, pension funds and endowments.")
On that list are a couple usual suspects ... university endowments, teachers pension funds. But why would Goldman Sachs be interested in being a passive contributor to someone else's PE fund? Or Wachovia Corp?

They probably mean via Goldman Sachs Asset Management, they have a HF strategies team, which is a Fund of Hedge Funds.
Perhaps with Volcker Rule, we'll see banks spreading their dough across more outside PE funds? They're capped at 3% of a fund's capital under the rule, with SBICs being an exemption.
