Round Table on “Private Markets”

Industry Report

- Advertisement -

Stockholm (HedgeNordic) – For many investors, the allure of private assets has steadily gained momentum over the past years and became somewhat of “the flavour of the month.” As traditional markets experienced fluctuations and uncertainties, investors turned towards private equity, private debt, real estate, and other alternative investments, seeking stability, diversification, and potentially higher returns. Now, as we reflect on the past and take a lookout of what may be in the future, it becomes imperative to dissect the performance, challenges, and future prospects of private assets.

As we embark on this journey of review, lookout and analysis, HedgeNordic’s round table discussion on “Private Markets” earlier this year aims to uncover the lessons learned, the strategies that proved effective, and the pitfalls to avoid. Joining us in the discussions and sharing their views from an allocators perspective were Ulrika Bergman, CIO at the Nobel Foundation; Magdalena Högberg, the Head of Strategic Asset Allocation and Quantitative Analysis at Swedish State buffer fund AP4; and Mikael Huldt, CIO at Swedish Insurance company AFA.

The asset manager side was represented by international experts in their field, and we were pleased to welcome Nadia Nikolova (Allianz Global Investors / AllianzGI), Raman Rajagopal (Invesco), Olivier Keller (PineBridge Investments) and Zeshan Ashfaque (Man Varagon) in Stockholm for the discussion, which was lead by Jonas Andersson of Navare Invest.

We hope you enjoy reading through this summary of the round table discussion: Round Table Discussion.
