Private markets have provided farmers, entrepreneurs, corporate tycoons and property developers with access to capital for centuries. But the current scale, growth and complexity of private capital is truly unprecedented – and is radically altering the investment opportunities and challenges facing institutional investors.
Private markets:
- Have grown to over $12 trillion
- Account for over 40% of all capital invested in the US – more than double their share in 2009
- Represent 35% of M&A activity – 10% more than a decade ago
