The Private Shares Fund seeks capital appreciation by focusing on investments in late-stage, venture-backed private companies. As compared to startups and earlier-stage venture companies, these companies have more established product lines and customer bases, and typically have displayed revenue growth. The Private Shares Fund's strategy is to participate in the potential appreciation of these dynamic pre-lPO companies. A publicly traded vehicle, the investment minimums are $2,500 for the Class A Share and Class L Share, and $1,000,000 for the Institutional Share.
