co-investment

Shared capital deployment

Co-investment is when multiple parties jointly invest in the same asset or venture.

The term appears most often in private equity, where limited partners invest alongside a fund in a specific deal, typically with lower fees than the main fund charges.

Co-investment arrangements let smaller investors access deals they couldn't reach alone: The pension fund made a co-investment in the acquisition.
