Helix Associates, A Jefferies Company, is a leading global placement agent for private equity funds and has offices in London and New York.  Helix provides a superior service both to private equity firms and sophisticated investors.

Helix’s founders established the firm in 1993.  Their aim was to establish an independent placement agent that could exercise its own judgement in selecting which clients to represent.

The firm's reputation is based on discriminating fund selection; thoughtful and balanced research; rigorous due diligence; and effective project management. This approach has generated a consistent track record of successful outcomes. Each year, Helix acts as the placement agent for a select number of high-quality private equity funds.

Helix has developed relationships of trust with institutional investors and high-net-worth individuals throughout the world.  This network is strengthened and expanded through Helix’s agreements with its global partners.

In the first twelve years of its life, Helix succeeded in meeting its founders’ goal of establishing a market-leading firm. In May 2005, Jefferies Group, Inc., a New York Stock Exchange quoted company, and owner of Jefferies & Company, Inc., a middle-market investment bank, acquired Helix.

In November 2005, Helix Associates was named "Boutique of the Year" at the European Private Equity Awards. This is the second time in three years that Helix won this prestigious award.
