Private markets are caught in the crossfire of global change. Geopolitical conflicts, sometimes high stock market valuations, and a shifting interest rate environment are shaping the investment decisions of professional investors. Nevertheless, private market investments continue to prove resilient and are increasingly becoming a core strategic component, particularly in institutional portfolios.

At the same time, new dynamics are emerging: In the US, pension fund discretionary portfolios could open up to private markets for the first time – a sign of the growing acceptance of illiquid investments in the institutional sector. Compared to other asset classes, private credit is currently in particular focus: as a growth segment that promises stability and attractive returns in the current market environment.
