Private equity fund commitments
For over two decades, Churchill has built a differentiated primaries platform by being a meaningful LP who supports our GPs through multiple vintages. This drives deep relationships and leads to further collaboration with our GPs on direct deal flow throughout senior lending, junior capital, equity co-investment, and secondaries.

committed capital
1 Defined as GPs in the 2022 vintage with at least one fund that measures top quartile on a MOIC or IRR basis using the State Street US Buyout index for the relevant vintage. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
We really view our LP commitments through a partnership lens. We invest as a significant limited partner and often serve as an advisory board member offering our GPs our full suite of firmwide value added capabilities up and down the balance sheet.”
