Alfi’s annual private markets conference is set to kick off in Luxembourg, following a successful charity golf tournament. Elena Moisei, the panel moderator, shared some key themes that will be discussed during the conference.
Investment fund strategies are crucial in shaping investors’ portfolios in the private assets sector. The upcoming ALFI Private Assets Conference will feature a panel of experts who will explore the various strategies used by fund managers to manage risk and enhance value. This panel discussion promises to offer valuable insights into both traditional and innovative approaches in the private assets industry.
The panel will cover a wide range of strategies, including traditional asset classes and more exotic options. Attendees can look forward to learning about non-standard and niche strategies applied to investments in private equity, venture capital, real estate, infrastructure, and other alternative asset classes.
Key topics of discussion will include the use of technology and data analytics in making investment decisions, the increasing importance of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors, and the liquidity needs of evergreen funds. The panel will also shed light on secondary transactions that offer liquidity to original investors, as well as continuation funds that extend the holding period of high-performing assets.
Given the current market conditions, the discussion will address challenges such as delayed exits, limited transactions, and high interest rates. This emphasizes the importance of strategic flexibility and patience in navigating the investment landscape. Fund managers face new hurdles in valuing investment portfolios and communicating value creation to investors, making it a top priority for them.
In addition to these topics, the panel will also explore the impact of geopolitical events, regulatory changes, and global economic trends on investment strategies in the private assets sector. The experts will share their insights on adapting to these external factors and staying resilient in the face of uncertainty.
Overall, the ALFI Private Assets Conference promises to be a valuable platform for industry professionals to exchange ideas, share best practices, and gain a deeper understanding of effective investment strategies. It will be an opportunity to stay informed about the latest trends and developments in the private assets market, ensuring that investors are well-equipped to navigate the ever-changing landscape of the industry.
