Coller Capital announces U.S. launch of CollerCredit, expanding access to private credit secondaries for wealth investors

  • Fund provides institutional-grade exposure to diversified, income-oriented private credit

New York, Wednesday, July 16, 2025 – Coller Capital, one of the world’s largest dedicated private market secondaries managers, today announced the U.S. launch of CollerCredit, a fund providing high-net-worth investors access to the growing private credit secondaries market.

Private credit secondaries is a distinct asset class within the broader multi-trillion-dollar private credit market. As the market has matured, a dynamic and expanding secondaries market has emerged, offering investors liquidity in what has traditionally been a long-term investment strategy. Coller Capital was an early mover in credit secondaries, pioneering investments as early as 2008. To date, the firm has committed $10.1 billion to credit secondaries.1

CollerCredit seeks to deliver income, diversification, and downside mitigation along with more frequent liquidity than conventional private credit vehicles. The strategy complements the firm’s broader credit secondaries platform, which recently raised $6.8 billion in its latest fundraising cycle.2 Coller’s credit secondaries group includes 12 specialists within the wider 77-person investment team, making it one of the largest dedicated secondaries investment teams in the industry.

This U.S.-registered vehicle follows the firm’s existing CollerCredit strategy introduced in Luxembourg in 2024 and reflects the firm’s commitment to expanding private market access for wealth investors globally.

 Jake Elmhirst, Partner, Head of Private Wealth Secondaries Solutions and Deputy Head of Capital Formation, said: “The U.S. launch of CollerCredit reflects our commitment to building a secondaries platform for wealth investors wherever they are located. Private credit secondaries are a fast-growing segment of the market, and this fund offers institutional-grade access to a carefully constructed portfolio focused on income, diversification, and capital resilience.”

Michael Schad, Partner, Head of Coller Credit Secondaries, said: “Private credit secondaries represent a significant and expanding opportunity, but accessing it effectively requires deep expertise. Coller has been investing in this space for over 16 years, and we believe our dedicated credit team is well positioned to lead this next phase of its evolution.”

Jon McEvoy, Head of U.S. Private Wealth Distribution, said: “CollerCredit brings together Coller’s long track record in secondaries with a structure designed specifically for the U.S. wealth market. It offers investors access to private credit through a vehicle built for long-term allocation and aligned with the needs of high-net-worth portfolios.”

The fund is structured as a U.S. Registered Investment Company (RIC) and operates as a tender offer fund to provide periodic liquidity. Available to high-net-worth investors, including taxable, tax-exempt, and ERISA-eligible, the fund offers monthly subscriptions, quarterly repurchase offers, as well as simplified 1099 tax reporting and a lower minimum investment than traditional private credit funds.

The fund’s launch marks the next milestone in Coller’s Private Wealth Secondaries Solutions (PWSS) business, which was created in 2023 to expand access to private markets secondaries for high-net-worth investors globally. It follows the 2024 debut of the firm’s Luxembourg-based Private Credit Secondaries SICAV for international private clients.

Since establishing its global private wealth platform in 2023, Coller Capital has raised more than $4 billion across private equity and credit-focused secondaries strategies. The firm currently manages $40 billion in assets and operates from 10 offices across Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific.1

An investment in a U.S. Registered Investment Company (“RIC”) entails risks, in particular the risk of an investor losing their invested capital. Prospective investors should conduct independent due diligence in assessing any investment opportunity.

Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of Coller Private Credit Secondaries Fund (“CollerCredit”). This and other important information about the Fund are contained in the prospectus. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing. A copy of the Prospectus can be found online.

Potential investors should be aware that an investment in the fund is speculative, involves a high degree of risk, and is suitable only for those investors who have the financial sophistication and expertise to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the fund and for which it does not represent a complete investment program. Only investors who can afford a loss of their entire investment should consider an investment. The Fund will make a limited number of investments. Consequently, the aggregate return of the Fund may be substantially adversely affected by the unfavorable performance of even a single investment. Any investment in CollerCredit entails risks, including but not limited to the risk of losing all or part of the amount invested. Past performance is not indicative of future results, and there can be no assurance that the fund will be able to implement its investment strategy or achieve its investment objectives.

Interests in the Fund will be highly illiquid and subject to restrictions on transfer. Any tender offer or redemption by the Fund would have to be approved by its board of directors; it should, therefore, not be assumed that any such offer or redemption would happen at a particular time or at all. An investment in the Fund, unlike a traditional listed closed-end fund, should be considered illiquid. An investment in the Fund is appropriate only for investors comfortable with investing in less liquid or illiquid portfolio investments within an illiquid fund.

Lack of Operating History: Although Coller Capital’s investment team members have had substantial experience, the RIC is a newly formed entity with no or limited operating history upon which to evaluate the RIC’s potential performance. The success of the RIC will substantially depend on the skill and expertise of Coller Capital’s investment team. There can be no assurance that the investment team members will continue to be employed by Coller Capital throughout the life of the RIC.
