Interview with Benjamin Bizon, Vice President at EQT Group - Alternative & Private Equity Forum
At the Alternative & Private Equity Forum, we met Benjamin Bizon, Vice President at EQT Group. He explains how EQT is adapting its investment strategy in the face of longer cycles and reduced liquidity. Focusing on a sector and local approach, he emphasizes the importance of active support in transforming leading companies. Benjamin Bizon also explains how the Evergreen model removes barriers to entry for family offices and private banks.
Active management at the service of full potential
EQT maintains a rigorous strategy based on sector expertise and a strong local presence to understand each investment environment. The approach is resolutely active: by joining boards of directors, EQT teams deploy a "Full Potential Plan" for each company. This plan aims to transform market leaders into even more resilient and successful companies, ensuring tangible value creation despite a more demanding economic context.
Democratization through the Evergreen model
The Evergreen model simplifies access to private equity by removing the constraints of the J-curve and the successive calls for funds of traditional structures. For a private bank or family office, this means immediate deployment in an already invested portfolio. By using an annualized performance language, this format makes private equity more readable and facilitates its integration into a classic asset allocation for private clients.
Focus on leaders and resilience
EQT's selection focuses on companies that are leaders in their respective fields. This exposure to leading companies ensures greater resilience to prolonged economic cycles. By combining the strength of these companies with active governance, EQT gives private investors access to resilient assets capable of generating sustainable growth within their portfolios.
