Value Creation Operational improvement, strategic M&A, margin expansion, governance discipline. Product-market fit, rapid customer growth, network effects, category leadership.
Risk/Return Profile Moderate-to-high risk; return dispersion lower than VC; relies on execution and leverage discipline. High risk/high dispersion; a few outliers drive overall returns.
Time Horizon Typically 5–7+ years to realisation. Typically 7–10+ years to realisation.
Liquidity Illiquid; exit via trade sale, IPO, or secondary. Illiquid; exit via follow-on rounds, M&A, or IPO.
