PMI Annual Conference 2024 - How can pension funds streamline their exposure...

How can pension funds streamline their exposure to private assets? Investment in private markets is on the rise, as capital allocators are pressed to achieve higher potential risk-adjusted returns, access a broader range of alternative asset classes, while seeking to benefit from additional portfolio diversification. With a growing range of structures available that provide exposure to private assets and positive pension industry reform, UK pension funds are well positioned to capitalise on new investment opportunities. In this panel, senior representatives from the London Stock Exchange and Infrared Capital Partners will cover the following topics: • Accelerating the pace of pension reforms and the new aspirations for pension capital • Accessing alternative and difficult-to-source assets via listed investment companies • PISCES regulation: A new market facilitating direct access to shares in private companies • Active asset management: what is the value for money and how is it delivered to the investor?
