Pratap%20Singh Welcome to the third edition of our Private Markets quarterly newsletter. In our consistent pursuit to assist private markets professionals, we have launched our much-awaited Annual Private Markets Global Survey – we request you to share your perspective [survey link] and get your voice included. Our previous year’s sector outlook is available here for reference.

Additionally, we have invested granular focus on topics beyond the traditional areas of private capital in this edition. As Private Credit expands in emerging markets such as India, the sector continues to benefit from debt-focused investors and an alternative access to private capital for investors who do not want to dilute their stakes.

Similarly, infrastructure investment is attracting capital and becoming a focus on LPs, as it assists clients in the time of turmoil including fluctuations in interest rates. Within infrastructure, Data Centers are also demonstrating a strong level of interest.

As always, we shall continue to strive for your success. We hope you enjoy reading this edition of our newsletter!
