In this episode of The Exchange, Charles Troian sits down with Michael Lukin, Partner at Roc Partners, to explore why the Australian mid-market remains one of the most compelling and undercapitalized opportunities in private equity today.
With 30 years in the industry, beginning at Macquarie Bank before a management buyout formed Roc Partners in 2014, Michael brings a rare depth of perspective on how the asset class has evolved. He breaks down why the $50 million to $1 billion segment of the Australian market is structurally underserved by capital, how private equity has shifted from financial engineering to genuine operational value creation, and which sectors are attracting the most conviction right now.
The conversation also covers Roc's Summit Fund, their evergreen vehicle built to give private wealth investors simpler, more flexible access to Australian mid-market private equity, and why buyout is better suited to that structure than venture capital.
If you've been thinking about how private equity fits into a long-term portfolio, this episode is a good place to start.
