Dementia Discovery Fund - Tender for the Appointment of a General Partner

Tender description

The Department of Health (DH) is releasing an open tender on behalf of the fund to identify an organisation that will establish a general partner (“GP”) to act in such capacity for the fund and is anticipated to outsource investment management duties to an investment manager (“IM”). This document provides guidance to those organisations interested in putting forward proposals to act as the GP. Please note that references to the “General Partner” or “GP” include, where appropriate, the IM, which it is anticipated will be an associate of the GP, will act as a delegate of the GP and who will hold the requisite regulatory permissions to act as the IM of the fund. It should be noted that this is not a UK government tender and the DH is therefore not subject to public procurement rules.
