Private equity fund benchmarks: understand performance and risk

As the private equity market expands and competition intensifies, it is essential to understand risk drivers, market trends and historical performance patterns. These insights help investors calibrate portfolios, assess manager quality and maintain an edge in a rapidly evolving asset class. PEI’s benchmarking across IRR, TVPI, DPI, NAV and other key metrics is built on fund performance data submitted directly by managers and validated by our in-house analysts – not simply aggregated from third parties.

Private equity intelligence you can act on

Global private equity deal activity has undergone significant structural shifts in recent years, influenced by higher interest rates, shifting valuation expectations, and increased competition for high-quality assets. While some managers are pausing activity amid market volatility, others are deploying capital aggressively into sectors with resilient fundamentals. PEI uncovers the dynamics behind these trends, giving you the context you need to make informed strategic decisions.

Our award-winning editorial team delivers exclusive reporting, forward-looking analysis, in-depth investor profiles and industry-leading Q&As, alongside comprehensive coverage of global private equity markets. In a landscape that is diversifying and moving at speed, PEI equips you to proactively model emerging opportunities rather than simply react to market headlines.
