How do LPs unlock liquidity from private-fund positions without selling at a discount? In this episode, I talk with Alex Simpson, Co-founder of Liquid LP, a platform that provides NAV loans backed by LP and GP interests in private funds. Alex explains how NAV loans work, how lenders underwrite illiquid portfolios, and when borrowing may be preferable to selling in the secondary market. We also discuss how different types of investors—high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and institutions—use these loans for personal liquidity, capital calls, tax needs, portfolio rebalancing, or simply as a liquidity backstop. We also cover underwriting, LTV ranges, recourse structures, timing, advisory boards, and the origin story behind Liquid LP.
