Join us on 12 June, 2025 at 10.00am BST / 5.00pm SGT for our latest “Blitzinar” bringing you key insights in 15 minutes + 15 minutes for direct Q&A, to discuss our recent report, “Building Custom Private Equity Fund Benchmarks”, showing that custom benchmarking allows for almost any combination of index construction across sectors and geographies, which is important as it allows limited partners (LPs) and general partners (GPs) to examine performance against the most relevant benchmark.
Given private equity fund managers take meaningful specific risk, often allocating entirely to one country, or to a few specific sectors, the ability to customise a benchmark allows this exposure to be replicated more accurately than can be done with broader indices. This functionality compliments the existing flagship private equity indices and thematic indices across geographies and sectors.
As we show in fund case studies covering Sweden, Germany and Spain-based funds, the choice of benchmark can determine whether a fund has generated alpha or not. The ability to take multiple cuts at the data helps one judge performance more precisely and can lead to better investment decision making (LPs) and improved portrayal of performance (GPs).
