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?
