Hamilton Lane is a global private markets investment solutions provider serving institutional and high-net-worth clients with approximately $138 billion of discretionary assets under management and $819 billion of non-discretionary assets under advisement as of March 31, 2025. The company operates across three primary business segments: customized separate accounts ($99 billion AUM) where it holds discretionary investment authority over client portfolios; specialized funds ($40 billion AUM) including primary, secondary, and direct investment vehicles across private equity, private credit, real estate, infrastructure, and venture capital; and advisory services ($819 billion AUA) providing non-discretionary guidance on asset allocation, investment screening, and manager due diligence. Hamilton Lane generates revenue through management fees on assets under management, advisory fees on assets under advisement, performance fees aligned with fund returns, and ancillary services including distribution management, reporting, monitoring, and proprietary data analytics through its Cobalt LP platform. The company's competitive advantages include deep industry relationships, differentiated investment access, proprietary data and analytical capabilities, and three decades of dedicated private markets expertise, enabling it to serve a globally diversified client base spanning pension funds, sovereign wealth funds, endowments, foundations, family offices, and insurance companies across North America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Australia, and Latin America. With approximately 760 employees including 265 investment professionals across 22 global offices, Hamilton Lane operates an asset-light, fee-generating model that leverages its platform to manage increasingly larger pools of capital across multiple investment strategies and geographies.
【Strong fundraising momentum continuing】 Management expects robust capital deployment across multiple product lines, with first closes anticipated for new secondary and venture access funds in the second calendar quarter of 2026, and the inaugural GP-led secondary fund expected to close before calendar year-end 2026. The Evergreen platform continues to expand with multi-asset, multi-strategy offerings exceeding $1 billion in size, supported by new institutional mandates and insurance-wrapped products that are expected to bring additional insurance clients to the platform. Private credit fundamentals remain solid with disciplined leverage and attractive spreads, while real estate has transitioned from valuation reset to opportunity with improving transaction activity, and infrastructure fundraising reached record levels in 2025 with over 50% of funds oversubscribed and more than 90% of institutions expected to maintain or increase allocations in 2026. Management anticipates continued exit activity and value creation from portfolio companies, with expectations for GPs to execute additional exits in 2026, and the company expects to generate meaningful management fees from Guardian's $5 billion of committed capital over at least 10 years alongside approximately $500 million in annual commitments.
