Private markets investing – in private equity, private debt, real estate, infrastructure, and other specialist asset classes – continues to move towards the mainstream of the funds industry. This article outlines four significant trends we observe as private markets investing continues to move towards the mainstream of the funds industry, all with broad-reaching ramifications.

Private market assets’ move towards the mainstream of the funds industry is driving demand for products to deliver private market exposure with a measure of liquidity. ‘Semi-liquid’ funds are rising in prevalence as a result, spurred in Europe by interest in the European Long-Term Investment Fund (ELTIF) and UK Long Term Asset Fund (LTAF) vehicles as entry points for investors into more illiquid asset classes. This paper explores the trends, challenges and solutions emerging.
