The latest report from Scientific Infra & Private Assets, “Are Private Equities Riskier than Stocks?”, finds that private equities, as represented by the private2000 index, have a ten-year volatility of returns and extreme risk profile that are commensurate with that of listed equities, but that the maximum drawdown of public equities is consistently higher than that of private equities. . . .
As the only data provider offering monthly data releases for investors in private infrastructure, we are pleased to announce that the latest update for December 2024 is now live, featuring our infraMetrics Equity and Debt Indices and Comparables. . . .
The November 2024 monthly data release is now available for the privateMetrics Market Indices that deliver reliable insights into the risk and returns of private equity investments at the asset level, and privateMetrics Comparables, advanced comparables inputs for private equity investments that mitigate the issues of small transaction samples and stale Net Asset Values (NAVs). . . .
The private2000® index, which tracks the monthly performance of 2,000 private companies across 30 key markets, generated a robust 4.20% return for Q3 2024, marking a rebound from the previous quarter and bringing the year-to-date return to 4.45%. . . .
The infra300® index, which tracks the monthly returns of 300 unlisted infrastructure companies worldwide, saw a 5.59% total return in Q3, with the Transport and Renewable sectors being the primary drivers. . . .
The infraGreen index, which accurately reflects the performance of unlisted companies in the renewable energy sector, recorded a 5.03% total return in Q3, driven by interest rate cuts and a lower equity risk premium, leading to higher valuations. . . .

Our Research
R&D of the EDHEC Infrastructure & Private Asset Research Institute
Since 2016, the EDHEC Infrastructure & Private Assets Research Institute has been producing research on private asset pricing, risk management, credit risk and climate risk measurement. While some of this research has now been industrialised and is distributed by our corporate arm, Scientific Infra & Private Assets, we continue to develop new applied research in the field of investment and private markets, with a focus on machine learning and language processing.
