Hello Community!

Excited to announce a new events for us - online webinar from S&P.

Speaker:

Ari Rajendra,  Head of Private Markets Indices, S&P Dow Jones Indices

As private markets attract new capital, interest from wealth and retail channels is accelerating. This developing landscape presents new opportunities and risks for both investors and managers, while highlighting the need for transparent data, robust benchmarks, and greater accessibility. 

Private markets have become an increasingly important allocation within institutional portfolios yet benchmarking these assets has long presented structural and data challenges. S&P Dow Jones Indices has recently introduced a new suite of private markets indices, marking a significant step toward simplifying complexities when it comes to indexing private markets.

Join us for an exclusive session with S&P Dow Jones Indices (S&P DJI) as we explore why these indices were launched, how they are constructed, and how the data used in the indices is sourced. Designed for performance and risk professionals, this session will provide practical insight into how private market benchmarking is evolving and what that means for portfolio oversight, manager evaluation and reporting.

In a concise presentation from Ari Rajendra, Head of Private Markets Indices at S&P DJI, followed by discussion and Q&A, we will examine the drivers behind the launch, the methodological considerations unique to private assets, and how they support the momentum of alternative assets. This is a valuable opportunity to  deepen your understanding of a fast-developing area of index innovation.
