Secondaries have emerged as one of the fastest-growing segments within private capital, offering investors potential access to liquidity and flexibility in an asset class traditionally known for long holding periods. In this episode, Rob Olsen is joined by Nicola Wealth’s Tori Buffrey and Adrian Millan, Partner at PJT Park Hill in New York, to explore how this market is evolving and what it means for today’s investors.

Together, they explain the fundamentals of LP- and GP-led secondaries, discuss the increase in transaction volume, and examine the structural and market trends shaping the space. Tori shares how Nicola Wealth approaches GP-led secondaries, while Adrian offers a global view informed by years of experience advising institutional clients.

They also discuss the role of innovation in deal execution, recent shifts in capital flows, including interest from retail and insurance investors, and the unique position Canadian investors hold in the broader market.
