During this session we will do a full 2020 market overview for the Private Debt and Real Estate industries, drawing on insights from Preqin’s soon to be published Global Reports and proprietary data. We will examine how the two asset classes fared through the lens of fundraising, performance, and deal activity before looking ahead to 2021 and beyond to try and forecast where they might be heading.

  • How successful were managers fundraising during the pandemic
  • How large are these asset classes as we enter 2021
  • Just how different was 2020 and when will we return to normal
  • How confident are institutional investors with their current portfolios
  • What will the industry look like 5 years from now
