Private Wealth: From Institutional to Individual
In a keynote for the Private Wealth report of Private Equity International, Margaux Buridant, co-head of Private Wealth Solutions and Head of Capital Formation for North America at Tikehau Capital, and Christian Rouquerol, Head of Capital Formation for Europe and Latin America discuss how regulation, distributor partnerships and digitalisation are accelerating private wealth participation in private markets.
What’s changing
- Evergreen and semi-liquid fund structures are bridging institutional-grade opportunities and private wealth needs.
- Regulation matters: ELTIF 2.0’sredemption framework is a key enabler for investor-friendly access.
- Distributor partnerships and digital tools are simplifying onboarding, subscriptions and reporting.
How Tikehau Capital is Investing in this Evolution
- Opale: our investor-facing digital platform designed to simplify access and subscriptions for a broader range of investors.
- Strong alignment remains core to our DNA: 70% of our balance sheet is invested in our own strategies (as of November 2025).
- Individual investors already represent ~30% of our AUM and continue to grow, supported by our multi-asset,the matic approach and co-investment opportunities.
Market Context
- With only ~5% of European wealth currently allocated to private markets (vs. ~15–20% in the US),allocations are expected to double in Europe by 2030, creating both opportunities and the need for disciplined deployment.
