Standard manager performance rankings can hide as much as they show, and reported returns often mask a fund's true volatility. β
Our Global Manager Performance Scores provide fund rankings across track records, and our Q2 2026 Return Smoothing in Evergreen Fund Indexes is one of the first industry reports to adjust evergreen fund index returns to reveal their true volatility.
Join Hilary Wiek, Juan Mier, and Nathan Schwartz for a practical conversation about what these findings mean for portfolios and manager selection.

Two cities, four days, dozens of conversations about where private capital is headed next.
We opened the week at IPEM Global in Paris, where the team hosted a booth and talked GPs and LPs through the two topics dominating every conversation this year: AI and MCP, and what they mean for how diligence actually gets done.
Nicolas Moura, Sr Analyst on our EMEA Private Market team, also took the stage at the Private Equity Summit to unpack the European PE macro picture using PitchBook data. The headline: fewer funds, sharper focus. European PE fundraising has slowed to 76 new funds raising β¬50B YTD in 2026, yet mid-market buyout funds between β¬1B and β¬5B still pulled in 52% of that capital.
Day one wrapped at Caves du Louvre, where we hosted clients for our annual w**e event in the heart of Paris. Meeting clients where they are in the region is always the priority.
By Thursday we were back in London for the UK Private Capital Summit, with our institutional research team taking two moderating slots and the commercial team building relationships and sharing what's new on the platform.
Two cities, one clear signal: private capital keeps moving, and we're moving with it. Download our Q2 2026 European PE report here: http://spr.ly/6181BGTlgT

SpaceX's $1.7 trillion IPO dominated H1 2026, and first-half deal value already surpassed the full-year 2025 total. π
On paper, the venture market is breaking records. But capital is concentrating at the very top while the broader market contracts in almost every other segment. π
Can the market keep this pace, or is concentration already determining who wins the next cycle? π

Spreadsheets were never built to monitor trillions in AUM, and PE firms and credit funds relying on them are about to feel the strain. π
As retail investors gain access to private markets, the tools need to catch up. Kevin Hsu, founder of Lumonic, joins the PE FunCast to unpack whether funds should build their own monitoring stack, stick with what they have, or switch.

"We're definitely in a hype cycle... I do think we're still in an AI bubble," Rajan said, on the split between Europe's AI and non-AI ecosystems. π
