An influx of retail capital could change the future of private equity, bringing with it growth opportunities and operational implications.

The US pension's chief investment officer said the $17bn fund had enough cash on hand to handle the increased drawdowns.

Emotions that are unconsciously repressed or denied could result to GPs missing out on deals and push practitioners to their limits, according to a report from DWS.

Estimates suggest that as much as A$50bn could be withdrawn from superannuation funds.

The industry organisation is circulating a draft proposal recommending a host of disclosures on GPs’ use of subscription credit lines, with an eye to helping LPs manage exposure to the lines, allocation to PE and overall liquidity.

Russell Valdez of the $25bn investor discusses how GPs can ease pressing concerns of LPs and how the firm is supporting its managers during the coronavirus crisis.

PEI caught up with the $60bn Aussie superfund's Damian Graham to discuss why the investor is well-placed to capitalise on attractively priced unlisted assets.

The advisory firm is working on solutions for LPs that may not have sufficient liquidity to meet a capital call, partner Peter Martenson tells PEI.

Almost two-thirds of LPs are concerned about exceeding their policy target to private equity, according to a survey from the Institutional Limited Partners Association.

Emerging managers' innovative investment strategies and hunger to outperform make them an attractive proposition for LPs looking to deploy capital in a dislocated market.
