Private Equity vs. Public Markets: What's Next for Technology in PE?

Too Long; Didn't Read

In 2019, managed public market vehicles, hedge funds, made up about a third of institutional investors' allocations into alternatives. That's roughly 7% lower than the year prior. In private equity on the other hand, the asset class has seen a 7% increase from the prior year as investors allocated roughly 25% of their alternatives allocations to private equity. The odds of this pattern altering into a "new normal" are slim, long term double-digit returns remain the bread and butter of private equity and LPs are backing that thesis.
