Wealth investors continue to diversify their portfolios as private market players continue to broaden their offering. Traditionally high barriers to entry, coupled with the longevity of private investments had been at the forefront of wealth investor's concerns. However, wealth investors are increasingly allocating capital to private markets as attractivity and accessibility has changed the landscape for private wealth.
When looking to mitigate exposure to the J-curve, the secondaries market has proven to be highly attractive to private investors. Therefore, private wealth investors are, unsurprisingly, showing increased interest in this market. Secondaries investments provide investors with visibility, as well as protection to downside, and a far shorter term of investment. These reasons alone are an attractive starting point for wealth investors to gain exposure to private investments.
