Palico is slashing its fees to 0.05 percent for transactions exceeding $50 million in a strategic move to attract larger deals on its LP-led secondaries marketplace. The digital platform, which has primarily facilitated smaller transactions since its founding, is now targeting institutional investors with bigger portfolios.

Founder and CEO Antoine Dréan told Secondaries Investor that the reduced fee structure aims to scale the size of secondaries sold through the platform. The move represents a significant shift in Palico's business model, which previously charged higher rates for smaller transactions. The marketplace will maintain a 0.1 percent fee for deals below the $50 million threshold.

This fee reduction could reshape the secondary market landscape by making Palico more competitive for large-scale transactions. The platform's pivot toward bigger deals reflects growing demand from institutional investors seeking efficient ways to manage their private equity portfolios. By lowering barriers for substantial transactions, Palico positions itself to capture a larger share of the institutional secondaries market.
