Free digital platform supports advisors and high-net-worth investors with structured secondaries education
London, June 4, 2025 – Coller Capital, the world’s largest dedicated private market secondaries manager, today announced the launch of the Secondaries Institute, a new digital educational platform developed to support its growing Private Wealth Secondaries Solutions (PWSS) business.
The platform provides wealth advisors and high-net-worth investors with structured, accessible content designed to deepen understanding of secondaries and support long-term portfolio construction. It reflects Coller’s longstanding commitment to private markets education and responds to growing demand for tools that deepen investors’ knowledge of private market secondaries.
As allocations to private markets accelerate, secondaries are playing a pivotal role in delivering liquidity, diversification, and price discovery. In 2024, secondaries turned over about $160 billion in transaction volume – a 40% increase over the prior year. Coller estimates that the addressable market for secondaries is ~$10trn and rapidly growing. Though the secondaries market is a small proportion of the overall market, Coller believes it remains undercapitalised.
The Secondaries Institute provides free access to regularly updated content, including:
- Educational videos informed by Coller’s three-decade heritage in secondaries
- Market primers across private equity and private credit
- Commentary and insights from Coller Capital executives, including Founder and CIO Jeremy Coller
- A comprehensive A-Z glossary of key private markets terms and concepts
- Continuing Education (CE) – eligible courses led by subject matter experts
- Continuing Education (CE)-eligible courses led by subject matter experts
“Many advisors are realizing that secondaries are a strategic tool for today’s high-net-worth investor,” said Jake Elmhirst, Partner and Head of PWSS at Coller Capital. “With this platform, we’re arming advisors with what they need to engage their clients with confidence. Our firm has spent three decades shaping the secondaries market, and we’re proud to make that experience more accessible.”
The Secondaries Institute will equip advisors, investors, media, and other stakeholders with the ongoing tools, insights, and data needed to navigate the space and maximize the role of secondaries as a core component of high-net-worth portfolios.
Coller Capital announced the creation of its global PWSS business in 2023 and has since introduced multiple secondaries strategies tailored to the private wealth market. The firm has raised nearly $4bn in private wealth assets globally since inception.
