Navigating Public & Private Markets with the Power of Data

The increasing convergence between public and private markets has created a broader investment universe for meeting investors’ goals. While private markets potentially offer improved  diversification benefits, transparency and liquidity are more constrained than in public markets. Navigating this converging public-private ecosystem requires high-quality data and analytics  capabilities, that enable investors to conduct detailed due diligence and reliably benchmark performance. In financial markets with increased turbulence, what role do private assets play? How do the trends across the investment landscape in the US and other developed markets compare with South Africa and other emerging markets? How does the quality of private market data improve the robustness of client portfolios in meeting specific investment goals? Our panel of experts will tackle these questions and more.
