LONDON, UK, Oct. 15, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via PRWEB - The first Investor Groups are focused on Secondaries, Infrastructure and Africa. Members of each Group can access and share relevant news and research, produced by AltAssets' experienced team of journalists and researchers, as well as review updates from other members. In addition, members can review profiles of LPs in the Group and of all fund managers who invest in the space, and then use the wide range of online communications tools provided by the LP-GP Network to connect and engage.
The interest areas for Investor Groups are being created in consultation with LPs within the AltAssets community; over 5,000 institutional investors use the AltAssets service and over 3,000 are premium members of the AltAssets LP-GP Network. New Investor Groups will be launched over the next year in each area where LPs express high interest.
Investor Groups are one of a range of new features and tools being developed on the AltAssets LP-GP Network, which already connects thousands of LPs and GPs around the world, both online and at exclusive face-to-face events. In the last six months over 50,000 online connections have been made between Network members, which makes it the world's most active online private equity community by far.
