Private Banking at its Most Exclusive Level
Co-Investing provides clients access to unique opportunities in which they invest alongside other successful families, unencumbered by layers of fees. These opportunities are positioned for success because the families you are co-investing with possess unique skills, expertise and relationships that helped create and sustain their fortunes. We provide opportunities to invest with the Milstein family and other successful families with whom we partner in our private banking network.
Examples of investments:
USRA Net Lease Fund – commercial real estate opportunity with U.S. Realty Advisors, LLC (USRA), a firm focused on the acquisition and ownership of single-tenant triple net leased property. The tenant pays a contractual net rent, often with inflation escalation, and is obligated to pay all the taxes and other operating costs of the property. The most recent fund, launched in November 2014, targeted quarterly cash distributions increasing over time, at an annual rate in the high single digits and total returns in the low to mid teens. USRA has a proven track record with over $4 billion in realizations since 1989, resulting in overall client program net returns ranging from 11.6% to 32.7%. For this type of co-investment NYPB&T seeks to fully align investor returns with NYPB&T and therefore only charges fees above a pre-determined hurdle rate.
Intechra: The Milstein family identified this computer service company and made a $9 million investment (for 60% of the ownership). Following 18 months of steady growth and earnings, this company was sold for more than $110 million.
