Rise Of Public Market Investments Continues

The rise of private market investments is set to continue as institutional limited partners (LPs) are attracted to their potential to outperform public markets, says a survey from Adam Street Partners. It shows 86 per cent of respondents expect private markets to outperform their public market counterparts over the long term. As well, a previous fear of missing out (FOMO) has given way to a more cautious approach in light of current inflation, rising interest rates, and geopolitical risk. North America is the top focus for 26 per cent of institutional LPs closely followed by China (22 per cent) and Europe (18 per cent). Technology and healthcare are considered most likely to create the best investment opportunities in 2023.
