Institutional Investment Partners Denmark
Alternative investment platform for institutional investors
About us
Institutional Investment Partners Denmark (“IIP”) is an alternative investment platform for institutional investors investing in private funds.
Originally established as PKA AIP in 2012, IIP was formally set up as a regulated manager of alternative investment funds in 2019 and is dedicated to advising institutional investors on private fund investments and co-investments within private equity and infrastructure funds globally. IIP manages USD 10 billion on behalf of its institutional investors and the target for the coming years is to commit approximately USD 1 billion per year.
IIP currently invests on behalf of the four Danish pensions funds administered by PKA A/S, that collectively have more than USD 45 billion assets under management and approximately 320,000 members including nurses, medical secretaries, social pedagogues, and pharmacologists.
The Manager is licensed as a manager of alternative investment funds by the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority (FT-no. 23187) under the Danish Act on Alternative Investment Fund Managers.

Strategy
How we invest
IIP invests out of three-year funds on behalf of its institutional clients. Currently, IIP invests out of two active funds: PKA Private Funds III and PKA Venture I.
PKA Private Funds III is a DKK 19 billion (USD ~3 billion) buyout fund to be deployed from 2018-2020. The fund includes allocations to both primary fund commitments and co-investments. The fund will be invested with commitment sizes typically in the range of USD 50-150 million for fund commitments and USD 15-60 million for co-investments. The majority of the portfolio will be comprised of private equity commitments, with a minority reserved for infrastructure commitments.
PKA Venture I is a DKK 2 billion (USD ~300 million) venture fund to be deployed from 2019-2021. The fund includes allocations to both venture funds as well as growth funds and venture fund of funds. The fund will be invested with commitment sizes typically in the range of USD 5-25 million.
What we look for
On the buyout side, we look for control-focused managers investing into the middle market with operational and strategic value creation models. We only co-invest with managers that are already in our portfolio.
On the venture side, we primarily look for US and European early stage managers focused on investing in technology and life science.
Team
IIP has a large team that is dedicated to carrying out and monitoring private fund commitments.
The team consists of 20 professionals split across investments, finance and support. The investment team has complementary experience from institutional investing, private equity, corporate finance as well as consulting

ESG
IIP wants to make a difference. Not only to our investors but also to our planet and society. Therefore, we have a strong focus on our guidelines for responsible investing within our strategy. Our pursuit of responsible investments also stems from our belief that companies that act responsibly in the long run are expected to achieve better and more stable returns to their shareholders.
Our approach to working with responsible investment is based on the UN principles for responsible investment. Given that we only perform investments through funds, we obtain compliance with our guidelines through collaborative partnerships with fund managers and we strive to integrate our guidelines in the best possible way in each individual investment we commit to.
Guidelines
Our guidelines can be divided into two categories:
1. Broad adherence to conventions, including:
- The Universal Declaration of Human Rights
- The International Labour Organization’s (ILO) Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work
- The Rio Declaration on Environment and Development
- The United Nations Convention against Corruption
2. Specific bans on investments in:
- Unconventional weapons
- Tobacco
- Coal companies
