Welcome to the Winter 2024-25 edition of the Global Private Capital Barometer, Coller Capital’s landmark survey of private market investor sentiment now in its 20th anniversary year. The Barometer explores the current dynamics of private markets, examining private market trends, the competitive landscape and how LPs are navigating the evolving environment amid an improving macroeconomic backdrop.
We seek to better understand and uncover how LPs view the current opportunities emerging within private markets generally, as well as across asset classes and regions.
Fieldwork for the Barometer was undertaken for Coller Capital from 12 September 2024 to 30 October 2024 by Arbor Square Associates, a specialist, independent research consultancy that has operated within the alternative assets industry since 2006.
