Pillemer said the fund made the choice by looking at what teams were around to bring on and who they could joint venture with.
“Externally, this is the highest quality solution for the fund. This is the optimal solution for us and I think you can see that by looking at the quality of the team, looking at the investors and their credibility, their track record as well and looking at the support they get from the institutional gate keepers and you can see just a very high quality offering,” he said.
