GLOBAL PRIVATE EQUITY PERFORMANCE SERIES

In most of the modern finance, things tend to matter only if they can be measured precisely and frequently. By contrast, in alternative investment, that which matters most – performance – is remarkably difficult to pin down. Knowing what the precise performance is, of any fund, region or market, at any moment in time, is a complicated process, layered with judgement and requiring context. Perhaps this is why so much attention is paid to activity, sentiment, and anecdote. But it is possible to understand more if you have access to the right data and the patience to interpret it. One intriguing headline from our data could be: ‘China overtakes the US as the top-performing VC market.’ However, much of that value is unrealized.
