Institutional Investors Will Continue to Build Exposure to Private Equity, Vicky Forrester Tells S&P Market Intelligence
April 4, 2024
Private funds partner Vicky Forrester spoke with S&P Global Market Intelligence on the trends in limited partner investments in private equity in 2023. In “Limited partner investment total down 29% amid deal doldrums,” published on April 4, Vicky highlights some factors behind the 2023 slowdown. But she notes that, looking ahead, institutional investors will continue to build exposure to private equity, particularly regarding buyout funds, growth strategy funds and secondaries funds. LPs will likely prefer familiar managers with a track record, so less established general partners or those raising funds with new strategies may have a more difficult time raising capital, she says.
