Finding 04, Shown In Full
The most committed PE audience in the room is also the smallest.
Investment consultants allocated 14% of their confirmed meetings to private equity. That is nearly double the event average and the highest reading of any LP type. They are also just 3% of all LP contacts. Single family offices, the largest group at 33%, allocated 9%. Volume and conviction are coming from two different rooms. Most managers are only working one of them.
We see plenty of survey data. This one is different because it is based on what LPs actually did, not what they said they would do. The private equity numbers especially.
