CF Private Equity operates in investment management as an affiliate of the Commonfund asset management group. It targets institutional and professional investors such as pension funds, endowments, foundations, family offices, and investment advisors seeking diversification through private investments. The firm combines the scale of a global asset manager with the nimbleness of a boutique, offering access to leading managers across buyouts, growth equity, venture capital, and strategies focused on real assets and sustainability. Portfolios are constructed with a diversified mix of primary funds, secondary investments, and co-investments, with a focus on smaller and growing companies backed by sector- and geography-specialist general partners. It also provides direct investing opportunities through secondaries and co-investing programs to give exposure to select private companies. The investor base aligns with Commonfund’s emphasis on performance, trust, transparency, and ethical behavior. Based in Norwalk, Connecticut, the firm operates with a mid-sized team. A recent development was CF Private Equity UK Limited attending the Commonfund Forum on May 1, 2026, where leadership participated in a session on secondary markets.
