黑石房託基金遭大量贖回 美證交會關注

信報財經新聞

外電報道，美國證券交易委員會(SEC)接觸私募基金黑石(Blackstone)，關注黑石旗下房地產投資信託基金(REIT)面對富裕客戶大量贖回的情況。

黑石本月較早時公布，有大量客戶要求贖回REIT基金單位，公司實施限制贖回的措施。

報道引述消息人士稱，SEC官員希望黑石提供有關限制贖回後的情況，以及了解市場變化對黑石財務的影響，但沒有跡象顯示公司有任何錯誤行動，而要被當局調查。

黑石與SEC拒評上述消息。

BLACKSTONE CEO: A big shakeout is underway in private equity

Public pensions and sovereign wealth funds are increasingly reducing the number of private-equity firms they park their cash with.

Steve Schwarzman, CEO of the private-equity giant Blackstone Group, isn't fazed.

"They're getting rid of their underperformers," Schwarzman told Business Insider.

It will cause a lot of pain over the next decade in the industry, as there are widespread expectations that numerous firms will have to shut down if they are unable to raise new funds.

"This trend in no way surprises me," Schwarzman said.

"As private equity started to become an asset class, individual institutions appeared from the GP side to be more in the sampling mode.

"They gave money to a lot of different managers without necessarily understanding what the performance was, or was likely to be."

Sampling mode

This shouldn't be conflated with how much investors in private-equity firms are spending — that figure has steadily risen. That has helped Blackstone, which has boosted its assets under management nearly four-fold in the past eight years.

That is due in part to Blackstone's performance, which has outstripped that of most of its competitors. But not everyone can boast regular double-digit internal rate of returns as Schwarzman can.

"They're increasing their exposure to the asset class, which on balance has been their best asset class," Schwarzman said.

"They're concentrating more money in fewer hands."

黑石先生放唔低哈佛

【on.cc東網專訊】 當今私募基金界之中，至有錢嗰個，大概都非佢莫屬，就係黑石集團創辦人施瓦茨曼(Steve Schwarzman)，即是60歲生日Party豪請Rod Stewart(洛史釗活)唱足半粒鐘嗰位。佢有成900億港元身家，成功人辦如佢，心入面一樣有條刺，條刺大概就係「哈佛」兩個字。

施瓦茨曼最近接受訪問，又提起後生時入唔到哈佛單嘢，半世紀前嘅事。得哈佛收做Waiting(候補)，畀著好多人就一定滾動都嚟唔切，但嗰位係少年施瓦茨 曼，佢唔高興到，就喺自己中學入銀仔直接打電話去問哈佛個Dean of Admissions「有無搞錯」。結果冇搞錯，佢依然只係Waiting，之後「屈就啲」去咗耶魯同布殊做同學，即是日後做咗美國總統嗰個。

古仔未完。N年後，話說施瓦茨曼超豪60大壽都擺完咗好多年，佢收到哈佛嗰位Dean of Admissions嘅信認話「我估可能真係錯咗」；至於施瓦茨曼呢，幾個月前先捐咗1.5億美元(11.7億港元)畀母校耶魯。佢當年有幾唔忿氣？唔講 你未必知，佢當年就算兜路都要兜返入哈佛，69年喺哈佛讀完個MBA。好嘞，着過哈佛件畢業袍，估大概放得低？唔見得噃。

訪問中被問到如果有另一個好似佢咁叻嘅年輕人想搞另一間黑石，佢點睇。佢答話，就算對住個哈佛畢業超醒好有前途嘅，佢都係叫人家咪亂闖，唔好亂咁走出Comfort Zone(安逸範圍)，等年紀大啲知自己真正能力喺邊先再算。See！「哈佛」兩個字，陰魂不散。果然係愈得唔到，愈牽掛。
