General Description of Registrant [Abstract] | | |
Investment Objectives and Practices [Text Block] | INVESTMENT PROGRAM Investment Objectives The Fund’s investment objectives are to invest, directly and indirectly, in a broad cross section of private market assets that will enable it to, over time: ☐ Achieve long-term capital appreciation. ☐ Provide regular, current income through semi-annual distributions. ☐ Offer an investment alternative for investors seeking to allocate a portion of their long-term portfolios to private markets through a single investment that provides substantial diversification and access to historically top-tier The Fund intends to invest and/or make capital commitments of at least 80% of its assets in Private Market Assets. Distinctive Attributes The Fund offers the following attributes which create an attractive opportunity for investors when considering an investment in the Shares. ☐ Broad Exposure to Private Markets ☐ Deep Knowledge and Expertise in Private Markets Co-Investments ☐ Proprietary Database and Insights: ☐ Differentiated Access: top-tier Co-Investments Co-Investment ☐ Institutional Caliber Investment Management: Investment Strategies The principal elements of the Advisers’ investment strategy include: (i) allocating the assets of the Fund among the private market asset classes of private equity, real assets and private debt; (ii) securing access to attractive Co-Investments Asset Allocation Access Commitment Strategy six-year In addition, Primary Investment Funds typically experience a “J-Curve” Co-Investments sub-category “J-curve” The commitment strategy will aim to keep the Fund substantially invested and to minimize cash drag where possible by making commitments based on anticipated future distributions from investments. The commitment strategy will also take other anticipated cash flows into account, such as those relating to new subscriptions, the tender of Shares by Shareholders and distributions to Shareholders. To forecast portfolio cash flows, the Advisers will utilize a proprietary model that incorporates historical data, actual portfolio observations, insights, and forecasts by the Advisers. Risk Management. ☐ Diversifying commitments across Private Market Assets at different parts of fund lifecycles through the use of Primary Investment Funds, Secondary Investment Funds and Co-Investments. ☐ Actively managing cash and liquid assets. ☐ Modeling and actively monitoring cash flows to avoid cash drag and maintain maximum appropriate levels of commitment. ☐ Seeking to establish credit lines to provide liquidity to satisfy tender requests, consistent with the limitations and requirements of the 1940 Act. To enhance the Fund’s liquidity, particularly in times of possible net outflows through the tender of Shares by Shareholders, the Advisers may from time to time determine to sell certain of the Fund’s assets. In implementing the Fund’s liquidity management program, so as to minimize cash drag while providing the necessary liquidity to support the Fund’s private markets investment strategies and potential tender of Shares, the Fund may invest a portion of the Fund’s assets in securities and vehicles that are intended to provide an investment return while offering better liquidity than private markets investments. The liquid assets may include both fixed income and equities as well as public and private vehicles that derive their investment returns from fixed income and equity securities. The Fund’s investment objective and strategies are non-fundamental Private Equity Asset Class Private equity is a common term for investments that are typically made in non-public The private equity market is diverse and can be divided into several different segments, each of which may exhibit distinct characteristics based on combinations of various factors. These include the type and financing stage of the investment, the geographic region in which the investment is made and the vintage year. The Fund may invest in all segments of private equity on a global basis. Private Equity Financing Stages In private equity, the term “financing stage” is used to describe investments (or funds that invest) in companies at a certain stage of development. The different financing stages have distinct risk, return and correlation characteristics and play different roles within a diversified private equity portfolio. Broadly speaking, private equity investments can be broken down into three financing stages: buyout, venture capital and growth equity. These categories may be further subdivided based on the investment strategies that are employed. The Fund may make private equity investments across all financing stages and investment strategies. ☐ Buyouts mid- large-cap 45-65% ☐ Venture Capital and Growth Equity sub-stages Growth equity investors target companies that require additional capital to expand their businesses but are typically more mature than the recipients of traditional venture capital. Such companies might be in a high growth phase but have largely mitigated the basic technology risk in their business plan. Many venture capitalists will consider a later stage investment in previously venture-backed companies to be a growth investment. The Advisers define growth equity as a minority equity investment in a profitable company where the capital invested is used to accelerate commercialization of a product, for example, as opposed to funding a business that is not cash flow positive. Real Assets Asset Class The real assets asset class includes infrastructure, real estate, energy, agriculture and other natural resources investments. The common thread across the sub-strategies assets and have increasingly embraced infrastructure over recent years. The Fund intends to invest in real assets on a global basis. Infrastructure Infrastructure opportunities arise across multiple geographic regions, including North America, Australasia, Europe and Latin America. Infrastructure assets may include, among other asset types, regulated assets (such as electricity generation, transmission and distribution facilities, gas transportation and distribution systems, water distribution, and waste water collection and processing facilities), transportation assets (such as toll roads, airports, seaports, railway lines, intermodal facilities), renewable power generation (wind, solar and hydro power) and communications assets (including broadcast and wireless towers, fiber, data centers, distributed network systems and satellite networks). These assets share certain investment features that may be attractive as part of an overall diversified portfolio, including some or all of the following: ☐ Provision for essential services with few substitutes that generally serve as the backbone for local, regional, and national economic and social activity. ☐ Stable and predictable income and cash flow that are often inflation-linked with low return correlations to traditional asset classes such as public equities and fixed income. ☐ Inelastic demand with strong pricing power for their use as essential assets for a functioning society. ☐ Limited operating risk. ☐ High operating margins and predictable maintenance capital requirements. ☐ Strong competitive advantages characteristics with high barriers to entry. In many cases, the rates, or the fees charged to end users, that are charged by infrastructure assets are determined by regulators, concession agreements with governments, and long-term contracts. Owners of such assets in many cases have the ability to increase such rates or fees at some level linked to inflation or economic growth. Energy Energy related assets consist of investments in the oilfield service and equipment manufacturing, exploration and production, technology, pipelines, and storage sectors. Energy investments will focus on the removal of the fuel from the earth, transportation of the resource to the refinery or storage facility, the storage of the resources until they are distributed to a third party, and the servicers that support each stage outlined above. Energy investments will generally focus on a specific level of development for the underlying assets. When the Fund purchases developed or “producing” assets, these investments will have an expected stream of cash flows that will likely be distributed to investors on an expected and reoccurring basis. Early stage assets will require significantly more capital as the underlying assets are being developed. Upon reaching a stage where the underlying assets begin to produce the underlying resources, leverage can be applied to the known production which can typically be utilized to drive continued development of the assets or begin to create cash flows to investors. Early stage assets generally rely on a higher component of investment level appreciation vs. current yield to drive returns to compensate the investors for the level of development risk. Agriculture and other Natural Resources Agriculture consists of direct investments in rural land, along with crop and livestock assets that produce food, fiber, and energy. Agriculture investments focus on the productive capacity of the land base, and returns are based on the biological growth of crops and livestock, as well as appreciation of land and related assets. Agriculture investments have often shown historical returns with a positive correlation to inflation, a low or negative correlation to public equities and debt, and low volatility in their return profile with stable income attributes. Agriculture may also include forestry investments, including tree farms, and managed natural forests. Forestry investments provide revenue generation from multiple sources, including harvesting, leasing, and usage fees. This category also includes other natural resources opportunities, including industries such as steel and iron ore production, base metal production, paper products, chemicals, building materials, coal, alternative energy sources, environmental services, industrial and precious metals. Real Estate Private real estate is a common term for unregistered real estate investments made through privately negotiated transactions. Private real estate investments are typically equity investments in the underlying real estate property, but in some cases, may also involve the debt/mortgages supporting the properties. Private real estate will generally include, without limitation, multifamily, retail, office, hospitality, data centers, senior living, and industrial assets. The Fund will generally employ a multi-strategy approach in an attempt to diversify the risk-reward profiles and the underlying types of real estate in which it invests within the strategies noted below. Because each real estate strategy may perform differently throughout the overall real estate and economic cycle, the Fund will seek to invest in a diversified pool of assets that include multiple strategies in order to have lower volatility than targeting a single investment strategy. ☐ Value Add/Opportunistic. ground-up ground-up ☐ Core Plus. ☐ Core. Private Debt Asset Class Private debt is a common term for loans and similar investments typically made in private companies that are generally negotiated directly with the borrower. Private debt investments may be structured using a range of financial instruments, including but not limited to, first and second lien senior secured loans, unitranche debt, unsecured debt, and structurally subordinated instruments. From time to time these investments might include equity features such as warrants, options, common stock or preferred stock, depending on the strategy of the investor and the financing requirements of the company or asset. The Fund’s private debt investments may be rated below investment grade by rating agencies or would be rated below investment grade if they were rated. Below investment grade securities have predominantly speculative characteristics and may carry a greater risk with respect to a borrower’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal. The global capital markets have undergone substantial and structural changes since the 2008-2009 Global Financial Crisis. Where once banks were dominant providers of credit, their relative size is in secular decline, thus creating an opportunity for other providers of capital. In addition, a new regulatory regime surrounding bank balance sheets has placed greater emphasis on the private non-bank Private Debt Instruments The Fund may invest in private debt across all types of instruments and asset classes. First and second lien senior secured loans are situated at the top of the capital structure and typically have the first claim on the assets and cash flows of a company. Unsecured debt, including private high yield, structurally subordinated instruments, and some forms of public debt, generally rank junior to secured debt on the capital structure, similar to equity. Due to this priority of cash flows, an investment’s risk increases as it moves further down the capital structure. Investors are usually compensated for this risk associated with junior status in the form of higher expected returns. Loans to private companies can range in credit quality depending on security-specific factors, including total leverage, amount of leverage senior to the security in question, variability in the issuer’s cash flows, the size of the issuer, the quality of assets securing debt, and the degree to which such assets cover the subject company’s debt obligations. Private debt will include direct lending to borrowers, alternative lending (such as trade finance, receivable transfer, life settlement, consumer lending, etc.) and leveraged loans. The Fund may invest in the debt securities of small or middle-market portfolio companies. Additionally, the Fund may also invest in distressed debt (non-control non-performing The Fund expects to access the private debt asset class, other than distressed debt and leveraged loans, principally through primaries. Impact Investing Impact investing covers a wide spectrum of investments in companies focused on positive, measurable improvements across a range of social and environmental metrics. Investors in such companies seek clarity around the impact goal and then measure objective data to gauge the results while earning a competitive financial return — often termed the “double bottom line.” Impact investing goes further than screening for investments associated with undesirable consequences and seeks to create desirable impact while maintaining financial discipline. The Advisers are focused on strategies that deliver impact but also competitive risk-adjusted returns. The Advisers believe that impact investing requires specialized domain expertise to effectively execute on the dual mandate. The Fund’s strategy will include impact investments through primaries, secondaries and Co-Investments Types of Investment Structures The Fund invests, directly and indirectly, in private equity, real assets and private debt through the various structures described below. Primary Investment Funds “J-Curve,” duration from ten to twelve years, including extensions, while private debt primary investment funds typically range in duration from eight to ten years. Underlying investments in portfolio investments generally have a three to six year range of duration with potentially shorter periods for private debt or longer for infrastructure investments. Primary Investment Funds are generally closed-end top-tier Secondary Investment Funds. partner-led “J-Curve” The market for purchasing Investment Funds on the secondary market may be very limited and competitive, and the strategies and Investment Funds to which the Fund wishes to allocate capital may not be available for secondary investment at any given time. Purchases of Investment Funds on the secondary market may be heavily negotiated and may create additional transaction costs for the Fund. Secondaries may include various structures by which the Fund gains exposure to the private markets. The Fund may purchase direct investments in an existing operating company, project or property from another investor in a negotiated transaction. The Fund may invest in the equity or debt of structured transactions such as collateralized fund obligations or similar investment vehicles (“CFOs”) that own existing funds and direct investments. The Fund may also invest in open-end closed-end Co-Investments Co-Investments Co-Investments co-investors Co-Investments Co-Investment J-Curve Geographic Regions Private Market Assets may be domiciled in the United States or outside the United States, though the Fund will principally invest in U.S.-domiciled investments. The Advisers intend for the Fund to have limited exposure to emerging market countries. Investment Selection The Advisers seek to invest the Fund’s capital allocated to each segment in the highest quality investments available. As available investment opportunities are analyzed, investment professionals seek to evaluate them in relation to historical benchmarks and peer analysis, current information from the Advisers’ private market investments, and against each other. General Due Diligence The Advisers and their investment personnel use a range of resources to identify and source the availability of promising Private Market Assets. The Advisers’ investment approach is based on the extensive research conducted by their research professionals. The Advisers’ research professionals are organized into sector-focused teams, which allow the Advisers to develop a deep perspective on the different sub-sectors The Advisers’ research professionals assess the relative attractiveness of different geographies and strategies for private market investments. This allows the Advisers to identify the areas that they believe will outperform over the next three to five years, the typical investing cycle of a private market asset. Shorter-term opportunistic allocations will also be utilized to seek to capitalize on near-term market trends. Examples of factors that are considered include the supply of capital available for investments (based on fundraising) compared to the likely supply of investment opportunities; projected growth rates; availability of leverage; long-term industry and geographic-specific trends; regulatory and political conditions; and demographic and technological trends. The due diligence process is led by at least one StepStone partner, who is supported by the sector team that covers the relevant Investment Manager. StepStone’s Investment Committee(s) will also be highly involved throughout the manager evaluation and selection process. The Investment Committee will conduct a detailed review of each Investment Manager that has passed into the due diligence stage. StepStone’s due diligence report serves as a framework for these discussions. Once a deal has been identified as a potential transaction, the deal team summarizes the opportunity in a report. Each report is reviewed, and the team prioritizes the opportunity accordingly. Through this process, the Advisers can identify the most attractive opportunities and focus their resources on the most promising leads. For each priority deal, the assigned investment team gathers and reviews available information on the underlying assets. To facilitate this process, StepStone utilizes its proprietary database, SPI, that tracks information on over 193,000 investments in underlying companies/assets companies and assets, 42,000 Investment Funds and incorporating information garnered from over 3,500 Investment Manager meetings StepStone holds per year. This database is populated with information StepStone has gathered from general partner meetings, due diligence materials, quarterly reports, annual meetings, marketing materials and other sources. The database is critical during the preliminary due diligence phase, as some parties are unwilling to share portfolio information early in the process. During this stage, StepStone also leverages information from the independent valuation assessments produced by StepStone’s monitoring and reporting team. This exercise encompasses thousands of companies and provides valuable insights on the quality of the funds’ underlying assets and the general partners’ valuation practices. After preliminary due diligence is completed, the sector team works closely with the Investment Committee to validate that the opportunity fits the Fund’s strategy and meets its investment objectives. The Investment Committee also provides valuable feedback on the assets, the merits and the risks/opportunities of each transaction. The Advisers finalize their diligence process by interviewing the general partner, placing third party reference calls, reviewing fund-level legal documents and performing sensitivity and scenario analyses. Once the final diligence items have been performed, the Advisers will make an investment decision. In selecting Co-Investments, Sub-Adviser Sub-Adviser to determine if the Co-Investment Sub-Adviser Co-Investments. The Advisers’ analysis of a potential secondary purchase incorporates the analysis of primaries referenced above as well as the review of the manager of the fund and the pricing of the secondary investment. In a secondary, the subject fund is typically partially or largely invested, in which case the Advisers conduct a review of the underlying investments made by such fund to project an expected return. The Advisers also evaluate the ability of the manager to invest any remaining capital commitment at appropriate risk adjusted returns. During this diligence process for all Private Market Assets, the Advisers review offering documents, financial statements, regulatory filings and client correspondence, and may conduct interviews with senior personnel of Investment Managers. In particular, the Advisers expect to regularly communicate with the Fund’s Investment Managers and other personnel about the Private Market Assets in which the Fund has invested or may invest, or about particular investment strategies, risk management and general market trends. This interaction facilitates ongoing portfolio analysis and may help to address potential issues, such as loss of key team members or proposed changes in constituent documents. It also provides ongoing due diligence feedback for future investments, as additional investments with a particular Investment Manager are considered. The Advisers may also perform background and reference checks on an Investment Manager’s personnel. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s investment program will be successful, that the objectives of the Fund with respect to liquidity management will be achieved or that the Fund’s portfolio design and risk management strategies will be successful. Prospective investors should refer to the discussion of the risks associated with the investment strategy and structure of the Fund. ESG Due Diligence The Advisers fundamentally believe that the integration of environmental, social and governance considerations (“ESG”) in the investment process, both pre- StepStone has established an ESG due diligence procedure when completing due diligence for broader business, financial, and operational aspects of an investment. This procedure includes a detailed and comprehensive set of ESG-related StepStone performs a review of each Investment Manager and the responsible investment policy, implementation and monitoring framework for the Investment Manager and its funds. Key focus areas include: ☐ How the Investment Manager or investee company identifies and manages ESG risks and opportunities; ☐ If the Investment Manager or investee company has clearly identified a responsible person for ESG policy; ☐ The skill set of the managing partners and/or board and the ESG committee (if ESG responsibility has been delegated); ☐ The level of involvement of Partner or C-level ☐ The fund’s approach to ESG training and priority of maintaining current best practices; and ☐ How the fund monitors and reports its compliance with ESG principles. These topics are incorporated into the investment decision process and the ongoing monitoring and management of investments but are not solely determinative of investment decisions. As a result, the Fund may make investments that do not have favorable ESG characteristics or high ESG ratings. Portfolio Allocation In allocating the Fund’s capital, the Advisers seeks to maximize the risk adjusted returns to the Shareholders. Portfolio construction is the first level of the risk management process. At a high level, the planning of a portfolio is intended to take into account medium- to long-term secular and macroeconomic risks, and how they are likely to impact private market strategies. A fundamental premise of the Advisers investment strategy is to prioritize a proactive sourcing approach for all forms of Private Market Assets, driven by a thoughtful portfolio construction plan. The objective of this plan is twofold: first, to build in appropriate defensive and opportunistic elements so that downside capture of the risk of the broader capital markets is minimized, while upside capture is maximized, creating an asymmetric risk/return profile—i.e., lower downside potential, higher upside potential. This applies equally to the planning and pacing of primaries, as well as secondaries and co-investments, Second, this plan maximizes the potential for the portfolio to capture the greatest allocation to the best managers available. The Advisers believe that approximately two thirds of the alpha in private market investments is created through selection of the best managers. In order to maximize allocation, it is critical to work with those managers ahead of their formal fundraising process to ensure that the maximum allocation for the subject portfolio is achieved. Similarly, proactive sourcing is critical to building the best risk-adjusted performance in secondaries and co-investments. As for the objective elements of portfolio construction, the Advisers will generally seek to invest no more than 25% of the Fund’s capital, measured at the time of investment, in any one Private Market Asset. In addition, the Fund’s investment in any one Investment Fund will be limited to no more than 25% of the Investment Fund’s economic interests, measured at the time of investment. The Advisers may invest the Fund’s capital in Private Market Assets that engage in investment strategies other than those described in this Prospectus and may sell the Fund’s portfolio holdings at any time. In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, the Advisers will seek to achieve three goals: meeting the Fund’s target returns, generating sufficient liquidity for the quarterly share repurchase program and minimizing volatility. The Advisers will dynamically allocate the portfolio among both private market asset classes and investment types with the intention of optimizing for these three goals. There can be no assurance that the Fund will provide any particular level of return, liquidity or volatility. The projected long-term asset allocation targets shown below reflects the Advisers’ current assessment of the appropriate mix of asset classes and investment types. Over time, the targets may change. Over shorter periods, the portfolio composition may reflect the allocation of capital more opportunistically in accordance with the Fund’s investment objectives. The Advisers currently expect that the Fund’s asset allocation will tilt more heavily toward Secondary Investment Funds and Co-Investments Asset Allocation Investment Type Range Secondary Investment Funds 40-70% Co-Investments 20-50% Primary Investment Funds 0-15% Asset Class Range Private Equity 60-80% Real Assets 15-30% Private Debt 5-15% Geographic Region Range North America 70-80% Europe 5-15% Rest of World 5-15% There can be no assurance that all investment types will be available, will be consistent with the Fund’s investment objectives, will satisfy the Advisers’ due diligence considerations or will be selected for the Fund. While the Fund actively pursues Co-Investments, StepStone Allocation Policy Allocation decisions may arise when there is more demand from the Fund and other StepStone clients for a particular investment opportunity, such as the capacity in an Investment Fund or a Co-Investment, With respect to Primary Investment Funds, StepStone uses its best efforts to defer the allocation decision to the relevant Investment Manager, mitigating the potential conflict. In Secondary Investment Funds, StepStone typically manages the allocation of the transactions across its clients. Under the StepStone allocation policy, if clients are similarly situated, considering all relevant facts and circumstances, allocations will be made pro rata based on the deployment pace for each client determined in accordance with StepStone’s standard operational processes and specified in each client’s annual portfolio plan. Allocation of Co-Investments Co-Investments Importantly, StepStone’s allocation process is managed independently by StepStone’s Finance team and ratified by the StepStone’s Legal and Compliance department. Leverage The Fund may borrow money in connection with its investment activities, to satisfy repurchase requests from Shareholders and to otherwise provide the Fund with liquidity — i.e., the Fund may utilize leverage. In the near term, the primary expected uses of leverage are to manage timing issues in connection with the acquisition of the Fund’s investments (e.g., to provide the Fund with temporary liquidity to acquire investments in Private Market Assets in advance of the Fund’s receipt of proceeds from the realization of other Private Market Assets or additional sales of Shares) and to enhance returns of private debt investments. The 1940 Act requires a registered investment company to satisfy an asset coverage requirement of 300% of its indebtedness, including amounts borrowed, measured at the time the investment company incurs the indebtedness (the “Asset Coverage Requirement”). This requirement means that the value of the investment company’s total indebtedness may not exceed one third the value of its total assets (including the indebtedness). The 1940 Act also requires that dividends may not be declared if this Asset Coverage Requirement is breached. The Fund’s b orrowin Private Market Assets may also utilize leverage in their investment activities. Borrowings by Private Market Assets are not subject to the Asset Coverage Requirement. Accordingly, the Fund’s portfolio may be exposed to the risk of highly leveraged investment programs of certain Private Market Assets and the volatility of the value of Shares may be great, especially during times of a “credit crunch” and/or general market turmoil, such as that experienced during late 2008 or the recent global pandemic. In general, the use of leverage by Private Market Assets or the Fund may increase the volatility of the Private Market Assets or the Fund. See “Types of Investments and Related Risks — Investment Related Risks — Leverage Utilized by the Fund.” | |
Risk Factors [Table Text Block] | TYPES OF INVESTMENTS AND RELATED RISKS General The value of the Fund’s total net assets may be expected to fluctuate in response to fluctuations in the value of the Private Market Assets in which the Fund invests. Discussed below are the investments generally made by Investment Funds and the principal risks that the Advisers and the Fund believe are associated with those investments. These principal risks will, in turn, have an effect on the Fund. In addition, the Fund may also make these types of investments pending the investment of assets in Private Market Assets or to maintain the liquidity necessary to effect repurchases of Shares. When the Fund takes a defensive position or otherwise makes these types of investments, it may not achieve its investment objectives. Principal Investme n t Related Risks General Economic and Market Conditions An investment in the Fund involves a high degree of risk, including the risk that the Shareholder’s entire investment may be lost. The Fund’s performance depends upon the Advisers’ selection of Private Market Assets, the allocation of offering proceeds thereto and the performance of the Private Market Assets. The Fund’s investment activities involve the risks associated with private market investments generally. Risks include adverse changes in national or international economic conditions, adverse local market conditions, the financial conditions of portfolio companies, changes in the availability or terms of financing, changes in interest rates, exchange rates, corporate tax rates and other operating expenses, environmental laws and regulations, and other governmental rules and fiscal policies, energy prices, changes in the relative popularity of certain industries or the availability of purchasers to acquire companies, and dependence on cash flow, as well as acts of God, uninsurable losses, war, terrorism, earthquakes, hurricanes or floods and other factors which are beyond the control of the Fund or the Private Market Assets. Unexpected volatility or lack of liquidity, such as the general market conditions that had prevailed in 2008, could impair the Fund’s profitability or result in its suffering losses. Availability of Investment Opportunities Similarly, identification of attractive investment opportunities by Investment Managers is difficult and involves a high degree of uncertainty. Even if an attractive investment opportunity is identified by an Investment Manager, it may not be permitted to take advantage of the opportunity to the fullest extent desired. Other investment vehicles sponsored, managed or advised by the Advisers and their affiliates may seek investment opportunities similar to those the Fund may be seeking. The Advisers will allocate fairly between the Fund and such other investment vehicles any investment opportunities that may be appropriate for the Fund and such other investment vehicles. See “Conflicts of Interest — The Advisers.” Leverage Utilized by the Fund The use of leverage is speculative and involves certain risks. Although leverage will increase the Fund’s investment return if the Fund’s interest in a Private Market Asset purchased with borrowed funds earns a greater return than the interest expense the Fund pays for the use of those funds, the use of leverage will decrease the return on the Fund if the Fund fails to earn as much on its investment purchased with borrowed funds as it pays for the use of those funds. The use of leverage will in this way magnify the volatility of changes in the value of an investment in the Fund, especially in times of a “credit crunch” or during general market turmoil, such as that experienced during late 2008. The Fund may be required to maintain minimum average balances in connection with its borrowings or to pay a commitment or other fee to maintain a line of credit; either of these requirements would increase the cost of borrowing over the stated interest rate. In addition, a lender to the Fund may terminate or refuse to renew any credit facility into which the Fund has entered. If the Fund is unable to access additional credit, it may be forced to sell its interests in Investment Funds at inopportune times, which may further depress the returns of the Fund. The 1940 Act’s Asset Coverage Requirement requires a registered investment company to satisfy an asset coverage requirement of 300% of its indebtedness, including amounts borrowed, measured at the time the investment company incurs the indebtedness. This requirement means that the value of the investment company’s total indebtedness may not exceed one third of the value of its total assets (including the indebtedness). The 1940 Act also requires that dividends may not be declared if this Asset Coverage Requirement is breached. The Fund’s borrowings will at all times be subject to the Asset Coverage Requirement. Private Equity Investments. co-invest Co-Investments The regulatory environment for private investment funds continues to evolve, and changes in the regulation of private investment funds may adversely affect the value of the Fund’s investments and the ability of the Fund to implement its investment strategy (including the use of leverage). The financial services industry generally and the activities of private investment funds and their investment advisers, in particular, have been the subject of increasing legislative and regulatory scrutiny. Such scrutiny may increase the Fund’s and/or the Advisers’ legal, compliance, administrative and other related burdens and costs as well as regulatory oversight or involvement in the Fund and/or the Advisers’ business. There can be no assurances that the Fund or the Advisers will not in the future be subject to regulatory review or discipline. The effects of any regulatory changes or developments on the Fund may affect the manner in which it is managed and may be substantial and adverse. Special Situations and Distressed Investments. that an Investment Manager will correctly evaluate the value of the assets securing the Investment Fund’s debt investments or the prospects for a successful reorganization or similar action in respect of any company. In any reorganization or liquidation proceeding relating to a company in which an Investment Fund invests, the Investment Fund may lose its entire investment, may be required to accept cash or securities with a value less than the Investment Fund’s original investment and/or may be required to accept payment over an extended period of time. Troubled company investments and other distressed asset-based investments require active monitoring. Venture Capital and Growth Equity. co-invest Growth equity is usually classified by investments in private companies that have reached profitability but still need capital to achieve the desired level of commercialization before having access to the public markets for financing. As a result of the risks associated with advancing the company’s growth plan, investors can expect a higher return than might be available in the public markets, but also need to recognize the business and financial risks that remain in advancing the company’s commercial aspirations. For both venture capital and growth equity companies, the risks are generally greater than the risks of investing in public companies that may be at a later stage of development. Investments in the Debt Securities of Small or Middle-Market Portfolio Companies ☐ have reduced access to the capital markets, resulting in diminished capital resources and the ability to withstand financial distress; ☐ may have limited financial resources and may be unable to meet their obligations under their debt securities that an Investment Fund holds, which may be accompanied by a deterioration in the value of any collateral and a reduction in the likelihood of the Investment Fund realizing any guarantees it may have obtained in connection with the Investment Fund’s investment; ☐ may have shorter operating histories, narrower product lines and smaller market shares than larger businesses, which tend to render them more vulnerable to competitors’ actions and changing market conditions, as well as general economic downturns; ☐ generally, are more likely to depend on the management talents and efforts of a small group of persons; therefore, the death, disability, resignation or termination of one or more of these persons could have a material adverse impact on a portfolio company and, in turn, on the Investment Fund that has invested in the portfolio company; and ☐ generally, have less predictable operating results, may from time to time be parties to litigation, may be engaged in rapidly changing businesses with products subject to a substantial risk of obsolescence, and may require substantial additional capital to support their operations, finance expansion or maintain their competitive position. Investments in smaller capitalization companies often involve significantly greater risks than the securities of larger, better-known companies because they may lack the management expertise, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of larger companies. The prices of the securities of smaller companies may be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements than those of larger, more established companies, as these securities typically are less liquid, traded in lower volume and the issuers typically are more subject to changes in earnings and prospects. In addition, when selling large positions in small capitalization securities, the seller may have to sell holdings at discounts from quoted prices or may have to make a series of small sales over a period of time. In addition, investments in private companies tend to be less liquid. The securities of many of the companies in which an Investment Fund may invest are not publicly traded or actively traded on the secondary market and are, instead, traded on a privately negotiated over-the-counter First Lien Senior Secured Loans, Second Lien Senior Secured Loans and Unitranche Debt.

Co-Investments planning laws and other governmental rules; (vii) changes in fiscal and monetary policies; (viii) under-insured or uninsurable losses, such as force majeure acts and terrorist events; (ix) reduced investment in public and private infrastructure projects; and (x) other factors which are beyond the reasonable control of the Fund. Many of the foregoing factors could cause fluctuations in usage, expenses and revenues, causing the value of investments to decline and a material adverse effect on an Investment Fund’s or Co-Investment’s Agriculture and Forestry Sector Risk Co-Investments. In addition, the forestry and timber industry is highly cyclical and the market value of timber investments is strongly affected by changes in international economic conditions, interest rates, weather cycles, changing demographics, environmental conditions and government regulations, among other factors. For example, the volume and value of timber that can be harvested from timberlands is limited by natural disasters, fire, volcanic eruptions, insect infestation, disease, ice storms, windstorms, flooding and other events and weather conditions and changes in climate conditions could intensify the effects of any of these factors. Many companies in the timber and forestry industry do not insure against damages to their timberlands. This industry is also subject to stringent U.S. federal, state and local environmental, health and safety laws and regulations. Significant timber deposits are located in emerging markets countries where corruption and security may raise significant risks. Real Estate Investments. sub-prime Real estate assets are subject to risks associated with the ownership of real estate, including (i) changes in general economic and market conditions; (ii) changes in the value of real estate properties; (iii) risks related to local economic conditions, overbuilding and increased competition; (iv) increases in property taxes and operating expenses; (v) changes in zoning laws; (vi) casualty and condemnation losses; (vii) variations in rental income, neighborhood values or the appeal of property to tenants; (viii) the availability of financing and (ix) changes in interest rates. Many real estate companies utilize leverage, which increases investment risk and could adversely affect a company’s operations and market value in periods of rising interest rates. The value of securities of companies in the real estate industry may go through cycles of relative under-performance and over-performance in comparison to equity securities markets in general. There are also special risks associated with particular real estate sectors, or real estate operations generally, as described below: Retail Properties. Office Properties. non-competitiveness. Industrial Properties Hospitality Properties. Healthcare Properties. Multifamily Properties. Residential Properties. Shopping Centers. co-tenancy Self-Storage Properties. Data Centers Other factors may contribute to the risk of real estate investments: Development Issues. Lack of Insurance. specifications, limits and deductibles. Should any type of uninsured loss occur, the real estate investments could lose its investment in, and anticipated profits and cash flows from, a number of properties and, as a result, adversely affect the Fund’s investment performance. Dependence on Tenants. Financial Leverage. Environmental Issues. Financial Institutions Risk. U.S. and global markets recently have experienced increased volatility, including as a result of the recent failures of certain U.S. and non-U.S. Energy Sector Risk Energy sector investments are affected by worldwide energy prices and costs related to energy production. These investments may have significant operations in areas at risk for natural disasters, social unrest and environmental damage. These investments may also be at risk for increased government regulation and intervention, energy conservation efforts, litigation and negative publicity and perception. Utilities Sector. Geographic Concentration Risks. Emerging Markets. The Fund’s Private Market Assets could be negatively impacted by the current hostilities in Eastern Europe, including direct and indirect effects on their operations and financial condition. In the event these hostilities escalate, the impact could be more significant. Certain of the Private Market Assets in which the Fund may invest may operate in, or have dealings with, countries subject to sanctions or embargos imposed by the U.S. government, foreign governments, or the United Nations or other international organizations. In particular, as a result of recent events involving Ukraine and Russia, the United States and other countries have imposed economic sanctions on Russian sovereign debt and on certain Russian individuals, financial institutions, and others. Sanctions could result in Russia taking counter measures or retaliatory actions which may further impair the value and liquidity of Russian securities. These sanctions could also impair the Fund’s ability to meet its investment objective. For example, the Fund may be prohibited from investing in securities issued by companies subject to such sanctions. In addition, the sanctions may require the Fund to freeze its existing investments in companies operating in or having dealings with sanctioned countries, prohibiting the Fund from selling or otherwise transacting in these investments. This could impact the Fund’s ability to sell securities or other financial instruments as needed to meet shareholder redemptions. The Fund could seek to suspend redemptions in the event that an emergency exists in which it is not reasonably practicable for the Fund to dispose of its securities or to determine the value of its net assets.

The elimination of a Reference Rate or any other changes or reforms to the determination or supervision of Reference Rates could have an adverse impact on the market for or value of any securities or payments linked to those Reference Rates and other financial obligations held by the Fund or on its overall financial condition or results of operations. In addition, any substitute Reference Rate and any pricing adjustments imposed by a regulator or by counterparties or otherwise may adversely affect the Fund’s performance and/or NAV. The transition process away from LIBOR may involve, among other things, increased volatility or illiquidity in markets for instruments that currently rely on LIBOR. The transition process may also result in a reduction in the value of certain instruments held by the Fund or reduce the effectiveness of related Fund transactions. While some instruments in which the Fund invests may contemplate a scenario where LIBOR is no longer available by providing for an alternative rate setting methodology, not all instruments in which the Fund invests may have such provisions and there is significant uncertainty regarding the effectiveness of any such alternative methodologies. Any potential effects of the transition away from LIBOR on the Fund or on financial instruments in which the Fund invests, as well as other unforeseen effects, could result in losses to the Fund. The risks set out above are heightened with respect to investments in LIBOR-based products that do not include a fall back provision that addresses how interest rates will be determined if LIBOR stops being published. Other important factors include the pace of the transition, the specific terms of alternative Reference Rates accepted in the market, the depth of the market for investments based on alternative reference rates, and the Advisers’ ability to develop appropriate investment and compliance systems capable of addressing alternative Reference Rates. Force Majeure Risk . i.e. in which the Fund may invest specifically. Additionally, a major governmental intervention into industry, including the nationalization of an industry or the assertion of control over one or more issuers or its assets, could result in a loss to the Fund, including if its investment in such issuer is canceled, unwound or acquired (which could be without what the Fund considers to be adequate compensation). Any of the foregoing may therefore adversely affect the performance of the Fund and its investments. Principal Risks Related to Private Market Assets Valuation of the Fund’s Interests in Investment Funds. An Investment Manager’s information could also be inaccurate due to fraudulent activity, mis-valuation Valuations Subject to Adjustment. quarter-end. year-end Daily Valuation Risk. Termination of the Fund’s Interest in an In vestm General Risks of Secondary Investment Funds. e.g. Where the Fund acquires a Secondary Investment Fund, the Fund may acquire contingent liabilities associated with such interest. Specifically, where the seller has received distributions from the relevant Secondary Investment Fund and, subsequently, that Secondary Investment Fund recalls any portion of such distributions, the Fund (as the purchaser of the interest to which such distributions are attributable) may be obligated to pay an amount equivalent to such distributions to such Secondary Investment Fund. While the Fund may be able, in turn, to make a claim against the seller of the interest for any monies so paid to the Secondary Investment Fund, there can be no assurance that the Fund would have such right or prevail in any such claim. The Fund may acquire Secondary Investment Funds as a member of a purchasing syndicate, in which case the Fund may be exposed to additional risks including, among other things: (i) counterparty risk, (ii) reputation risk, (iii) breach of confidentiality by a syndicate member, and (iv) execution risk. Additionally, the Fund may acquire interests in Secondary Investment Funds through structured transactions such as CFOs or similar investment vehicles that own existing secondaries and direct investments. These structures may impose additional administrative costs that the Fund would not have incurred had it invested in Secondary Investment Funds directly. Secondary Investment Funds held inside of a CFO may be subject to the risks and benefits of leverage at the CFO level. If the Fund acquires interests in a Secondary Investment Fund through a CFO, the Fund may be limited in its ability to enforce its rights against such Secondary Investment Fund. Commitment Strategy The Fund will employ an “over-commitment” strategy, which could result in an insufficient cash supply to fund unfunded commitments to Investment Funds. Such a short fall would have negative impacts on the Fund, including an adverse impact on the Fund’s ability to pay for repurchases of Shares tendered by Shareholders, pay distributions or to meet expenses generally. Moreover, if the Fund defaults on its unfunded commitments or fails to satisfy capital calls in a timely manner then, generally, it will be subject to significant penalties, including the complete forfeiture of the Fund’s investment in the Investment Fund. Any failure by the Fund to make timely capital contributions in respect of its unfunded commitments may (i) impair the ability of the Fund to pursue its investment program, (ii) force the Fund to borrow, indirectly cause the Fund, and, indirectly, the Shareholders to be subject to certain penalties from the Investment Funds (including the complete forfeiture of the Fund’s investment in an Investment Fund), or (iv) otherwise impair the value of the Fund’s investments (including the devaluation of the Fund). Allocation Risk.

Risk [Text Block] | General Economic and Market Conditions An investment in the Fund involves a high degree of risk, including the risk that the Shareholder’s entire investment may be lost. The Fund’s performance depends upon the Advisers’ selection of Private Market Assets, the allocation of offering proceeds thereto and the performance of the Private Market Assets. The Fund’s investment activities involve the risks associated with private market investments generally. Risks include adverse changes in national or international economic conditions, adverse local market conditions, the financial conditions of portfolio companies, changes in the availability or terms of financing, changes in interest rates, exchange rates, corporate tax rates and other operating expenses, environmental laws and regulations, and other governmental rules and fiscal policies, energy prices, changes in the relative popularity of certain industries or the availability of purchasers to acquire companies, and dependence on cash flow, as well as acts of God, uninsurable losses, war, terrorism, earthquakes, hurricanes or floods and other factors which are beyond the control of the Fund or the Private Market Assets. Unexpected volatility or lack of liquidity, such as the general market conditions that had prevailed in 2008, could impair the Fund’s profitability or result in its suffering losses. | |

Leverage Utilized by the Fund [Member] | | |
General Description of Registrant [Abstract] | | |
Risk [Text Block] | Leverage Utilized by the Fund The use of leverage is speculative and involves certain risks. Although leverage will increase the Fund’s investment return if the Fund’s interest in a Private Market Asset purchased with borrowed funds earns a greater return than the interest expense the Fund pays for the use of those funds, the use of leverage will decrease the return on the Fund if the Fund fails to earn as much on its investment purchased with borrowed funds as it pays for the use of those funds. The use of leverage will in this way magnify the volatility of changes in the value of an investment in the Fund, especially in times of a “credit crunch” or during general market turmoil, such as that experienced during late 2008. The Fund may be required to maintain minimum average balances in connection with its borrowings or to pay a commitment or other fee to maintain a line of credit; either of these requirements would increase the cost of borrowing over the stated interest rate. In addition, a lender to the Fund may terminate or refuse to renew any credit facility into which the Fund has entered. If the Fund is unable to access additional credit, it may be forced to sell its interests in Investment Funds at inopportune times, which may further depress the returns of the Fund. The 1940 Act’s Asset Coverage Requirement requires a registered investment company to satisfy an asset coverage requirement of 300% of its indebtedness, including amounts borrowed, measured at the time the investment company incurs the indebtedness. This requirement means that the value of the investment company’s total indebtedness may not exceed one third of the value of its total assets (including the indebtedness). The 1940 Act also requires that dividends may not be declared if this Asset Coverage Requirement is breached. The Fund’s borrowings will at all times be subject to the Asset Coverage Requirement. | |

Additionally, a major governmental intervention into industry, including the nationalization of an industry or the assertion of control over one or more issuers or its assets, could result in a loss to the Fund, including if its investment in such issuer is canceled, unwound or acquired (which could be without what the Fund considers to be adequate compensation). Any of the foregoing may therefore adversely affect the performance of the Fund and its investments. | |

General Risks of Secondary Investment Funds [Member] | | |
General Description of Registrant [Abstract] | | |
Risk [Text Block] | General Risks of Secondary Investment Funds. e.g. Where the Fund acquires a Secondary Investment Fund, the Fund may acquire contingent liabilities associated with such interest. Specifically, where the seller has received distributions from the relevant Secondary Investment Fund and, subsequently, that Secondary Investment Fund recalls any portion of such distributions, the Fund (as the purchaser of the interest to which such distributions are attributable) may be obligated to pay an amount equivalent to such distributions to such Secondary Investment Fund. While the Fund may be able, in turn, to make a claim against the seller of the interest for any monies so paid to the Secondary Investment Fund, there can be no assurance that the Fund would have such right or prevail in any such claim. The Fund may acquire Secondary Investment Funds as a member of a purchasing syndicate, in which case the Fund may be exposed to additional risks including, among other things: (i) counterparty risk, (ii) reputation risk, (iii) breach of confidentiality by a syndicate member, and (iv) execution risk. Additionally, the Fund may acquire interests in Secondary Investment Funds through structured transactions such as CFOs or similar investment vehicles that own existing secondaries and direct investments. These structures may impose additional administrative costs that the Fund would not have incurred had it invested in Secondary Investment Funds directly. Secondary Investment Funds held inside of a CFO may be subject to the risks and benefits of leverage at the CFO level. If the Fund acquires interests in a Secondary Investment Fund through a CFO, the Fund may be limited in its ability to enforce its rights against such Secondary Investment Fund. | |
Commitment Strategy [Member] | | |
General Description of Registrant [Abstract] | | |
Risk [Text Block] | Commitment Strategy The Fund will employ an “over-commitment” strategy, which could result in an insufficient cash supply to fund unfunded commitments to Investment Funds. Such a short fall would have negative impacts on the Fund, including an adverse impact on the Fund’s ability to pay for repurchases of Shares tendered by Shareholders, pay distributions or to meet expenses generally. Moreover, if the Fund defaults on its unfunded commitments or fails to satisfy capital calls in a timely manner then, generally, it will be subject to significant penalties, including the complete forfeiture of the Fund’s investment in the Investment Fund. Any failure by the Fund to make timely capital contributions in respect of its unfunded commitments may (i) impair the ability of the Fund to pursue its investment program, (ii) force the Fund to borrow, indirectly cause the Fund, and, indirectly, the Shareholders to be subject to certain penalties from the Investment Funds (including the complete forfeiture of the Fund’s investment in an Investment Fund), or (iv) otherwise impair the value of the Fund’s investments (including the devaluation of the Fund). | |

[1]Investors purchasing Class T and Class S Shares may be charged a sales load of up to 3.50% of the investment amount. The table assumes the maximum sales load is charged. A Selling Agent may, in its discretion, waive all or a portion of the sales load for certain investors. See “Plan of Distribution.”[2]These expenses represent estimated interest payments the Fund expects to incur in connection with its credit facility during the 12 months ending June 30, 2024. See “Investment Program — Leverage.”[3]The “Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses” are based on estimated amounts for the 12 months ending June 30, 2024. Some or all of the Investment Funds in which the Fund intends to invest charge carried interests, incentive fees or allocations based on the Investment Funds’ performance. The Investment Funds in which the Fund intends to invest generally charge a management fee of 1.00% to 2.00% based on the original cost of their investments, and approximately 20% of net profits as a carried interest allocation. The “Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses” disclosed above are based on historic returns of the Investment Funds in which the Fund anticipates investing in for the 12 months ending June 30, 2024, which may change substantially over time and, therefore, significantly affect “Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses.” The 0.60% shown as “Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses” reflects operating expenses of the Investment Funds (e.g., management fees, administration fees and professional and other direct, fixed fees and expenses of the Investment Funds) after refunds, excluding any performance-based fees or allocations paid by the Investment Funds that are paid solely on the realization and/or distribution of gains, or on the sum of such gains and unrealized appreciation of assets distributed in-kind, as such fees and allocations for a particular period may be unrelated to the cost of investing in the Investment Funds.[4]Includes amounts paid under an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) between the Fund and StepStone Private Wealth as administrator (the “Administrator”). Under the Administration Agreement, the Fund pays the Administrator an administration fee (the “Administration Fee”) in an amount up to 0.12% on an annualized basis of the Fund’s net assets. From the proceeds of the Administration Fee, the Administrator pays UMB Fund Services, Inc. (the “Sub-Administrator”) a sub-administration fee (the “Sub-Administration Fee”) in an amount up to 0.08% on an annualized basis of the Fund’s net assets, subject to a minimum annual fee. The Sub-Administration Fee is paid pursuant to a sub-administration agreement and a fund accounting agreement each between the Administrator and the Sub-Administrator. The Administration Fee is accrued daily based on the value of the net assets of the Fund as of the close of business on each business day (including any assets in respect of shares that is repurchased by the Fund on such date) and payable in arrears within ten business days after the end of the month. The Sub-Administration Fee is calculated in a manner substantially similar to the Administration Fee and is payable monthly in arrears.[5]Other Expenses include all other expenses incurred by the Fund, such as certain administrative costs and expenses relating to the offering and sale of Shares. Other Expenses are estimated for the 12 months ending June 30, 2024. |
