Secondaries, direct to the cap table.
Executed globally through YXS Capital, we only do direct secondaries, buying equity directly from existing shareholders, founders, employees, and early investors looking for liquidity, never through fund-of-funds structures.

How We Source and Execute

Four disciplines that keep every secondary direct, priced right, and closed on our terms.

Sourcing

Deal flow through the same founder and investor relationships built across our venture network since 2015, not brokered auctions.

Diligence

Direct access to company financials and cap tables, the same underwriting rigor we apply to primary investments.

Price Discipline

We transact at valuations we can underwrite independently, not at whatever the last round happened to set.

Execution

Direct negotiation with sellers and companies, closed globally through YXS Capital.

Our Approach

What we buy, and why we buy it directly.

What do you actually buy?

Direct equity positions in growth-stage and pre-IPO private companies, purchased straight from existing shareholders: founders, employees, or early investors seeking liquidity.

Why direct only?

No fund-of-funds layer, no double fees, and a direct relationship with both the company and the seller.

What's the check size?

We're flexible by design, sizing each position to the opportunity rather than forcing deals into a fixed range.

Where does deal flow come from?

Primarily through relationships built across YXS Capital's venture network since 2015, not brokered auctions or blind processes.

Have a secondary opportunity?

By introduction or direct inquiry, bring us a deal or reach out to discuss access.
