Private market investments represent one of the fastest-growing asset classes. While progress supporting private market investments continues, this asset class is significantly more challenging to support than public equity/fixed income investments. Challenges include the prevalence of unstructured data, the fragmentation of applications, and a lack of transparency into underlying investments. In this CutterCast, we share key findings and takeaways from our Benchmarking 2026 Private Markets survey. We discuss how firms manage the processes across the front, middle, and back offices. We also discuss data management, reporting, and the technology firms use to support private market investments.
