Course overview
Continuation vehicles were once seen as an elegant solution to portfolio timing mismatches. In 2025, they sit at the centre of a growing private equity controversy. This playlist breaks down how continuation funds work, why their use has exploded, and why limited partners, regulators, and secondaries investors are now pushing back. Through valuation analysis, incentive conflicts, liquidity dynamics, and real market examples, the series examines whether continuation vehicles genuinely create value or merely defer problems.
