Private Markets Investment Outlook Q4 2024: Reasons to be optimistic
A continued decline in inflation, the beginning of normalising central bank rates, and an improved capital demand/supply balance create a favourable environment for private market investments. However, persistent geopolitical tensions underscore the need for diversified allocations.
At the start of this year, our outlook for private market investments became optimistic. This perspective was underpinned by our expectation of a controlled decline in inflation and moves towards a normalisation of central bank policy rates. Today, there is evidence that inflation has declined significantly, and that an easing cycle has begun. However, geopolitical tensions persist, with the risk of escalating conflicts around the world underscoring the importance of a diversified allocation within private markets.
