💰 Venture Capital News

PitchBook: Tiger Global Searches for Liquidity

  • Tiger Global allows select secondary investors to bid on its private company portfolio after a failed strip sale.

  • Asset managers are struggling to find buyers for their venture portfolios, highlighting the challenges they face.

  • Tiger has been trying to generate liquidity after its pandemic-era shopping spree, initially attempting a strip sale of stakes in about 30 companies.

  • Unlike the strip sale, there is preliminary interest from multiple parties in Tiger's individual assets.

  • Tiger's willingness to sell assets individually suggests greater liquidity pressure, and selling specific companies may attract more buyers and potentially higher prices.
