Private markets to draw more investor interest this year: survey
This follows the Fed’s move to start cutting interest rates last September, prompting some investors to shift their allocations away from equities
MORE investment advisers are planning to allocate their clients’ assets in private markets this year, after a solid performance in 2024 whipped up appetite.
Hamilton Lane, a global private markets investment management firm, said on Friday (Jan 31) that 30 per cent of 320 advisers it surveyed intended to allocate 20 per cent or more to the asset class in 2025.
Another 29 per cent are looking to dedicate 10 per cent or more. This means a total of 59 per cent of advisers plan to allocate at least 10 per cent to private market investments this year – 15 per cent higher than in the Nasdaq-listed firm’s 2024 survey.
