Global Custodian, in partnership with State Street, will explore the findings of State Street’s Fifth Annual Private Markets Study, the firm’s flagship research report on the evolving private markets landscape. Drawing on insights from 480 senior decision-makers across asset management, wealth, pensions and insurance, the research highlights how private markets are entering a new phase of growth, shaped by shifting macro conditions, evolving investor demand and the continued expansion of distribution into the wealth channel.
The discussion will examine how firms are adapting their investment strategies, product structures and operating models to capture this opportunity. With individual investor access accelerating and operational complexity increasing, the webinar will focus on the practical implications for asset managers and their servicing partners, from fund structures and distribution to scalability, data and cross border considerations.
