Investing in private markets provides an avenue to explore unique investment opportunities with distinct and untapped potential return profiles. This enables diversification beyond traditional assets, offers the potential for achieving higher long-term returns, and aligns with long-term strategies, setting it apart from short-term tactics.

However, investing in private markets also carries different risks, and individuals who can not afford to risk their entire investment should avoid investing in such funds.

Private market investing can potentially yield annualized returns of 8% to 15% or more with equity multiples often in the 1.4x-3.0x range. However, these returns can vary significantly based on asset class strategies and market conditions. It's essential to be aware of the inherent risks and conduct proper due diligence before investing.

The advantage of being on the Vennre platform lies in its ability to overcome the barriers that typically hinder investors when accessing private markets opportunities including:

• High minimum investment tickets
