The expert edge in private markets
At Schroders Capital, where we go, we lead.
We harness our pioneering track record and specialist, expert edge to identify and transform areas of structural inefficiency and opportunity across global private markets. Through our focus on value creation, and enabled by our specialised mid-market expertise and global network, we unlock opportunities and deliver superior risk-adjusted returns at scale in the most attractive and high-growth segments of this evolving investment universe.
All of this is backed by the strength and stability of Schroders Group.

Our investment capabilities
Uncovering untapped opportunities to deliver transformational value
Our global platform unites strong local teams that source, transform and manage investments across the private equity market spectrum. We leverage our investment, portfolio management and sustainability expertise to deliver consistently high risk-adjusted returns through diligence and skill.
Sourcing diversified and premium income opportunities
Private and alternative credit markets rely on experience, sourcing capabilities, ability to identify inefficiency and flexibility. As pioneers and innovators, we have long standing expertise and relationships to navigate these markets.
Delivering resilient, future-proof real estate portfolios
Real estate markets are constantly adapting to changing occupier needs, demographic shifts, and social and environmental demands. These changes create opportunities for investors who can align with long-term fundamental drivers, or short-term supply constraints and market inefficiencies.
