Talk:Landmark Partners

Please note that this page is created in reference to one of the leading and oldest firms in the Private equity secondary market. Please refer to the discussion in respect to Lexington Partners and Coller Capital which are similar firms to Landmark Partners.

Please note that additional references are required and will be added, however the company is notable and the article is highly objective

references for AfD
Please see the same discussion on Coller Capital and Lexington Partners. Landmark Partners is smaller than the other two firms but is one of the oldest firms in the sector and is notable in that its former employees now run many of the largest players in the sector.

I have done a similar run on news articles for Landmark. These are all multi-billion firms that are among the most active in their market (one that you seem to have no knowledge of but I have no knowledge of many of the topics in wikipedia)
