Fresh thinking on private markets Is Emerging Markets Private Equity Dying?One evening a few years ago, as our train hurtled toward New York City, a colleague and I were discussing some inauspicious trends in emerging markets private equity. At one point I turned and declared, “the industry is dying.” Fast-forward to Portico’s founding, and I’ve finally had a chance to investigate whether that spontaneous remark was specious or spot on. Through a series of charts, Portico's first research piece—Is Emerging Markets Private Equity Dying?—reveals that a number of existential challenges are besetting the EM PE industry. Of particular note is the market failure in the supply and demand for capital amongst small-cap and mid-market funds. I hope that you enjoy this piece, and that it sparks a search for solutions to the industry's challenges. Do please drop us a line to let us know what you think—we'd love to hear from you. Best wishes, Findings from Is Emerging Markets Private Equity Dying? include:
