For most of the modern institutional investing era, we've treated "public" and "private" markets as two distinct universes, with different teams and expectations. But that divide is eroding. Fast.
By 2030, we may simply refer to them collectively as the market, without the qualifiers that currently frame how organizations allocate capital, build teams, and measure success. Public and private assets will still differ in liquidity, information availability, and degree of control. However, the functional separation, the belief that these markets require separate operating models, will fade.
