2nd Private Market Assets Summit Sydney

Looking forward to the insights from today's very well attended 2nd Private Market Assets Summit here in Sydney.

The discussion around private market assets and the potential investment opportunity they represent for KiwiSaver members is one that I expect will unfold further over coming months. It’s a good discussion to have and the liquidity and pricing risk characteristics those assets typically represent needs to be considered in the context of KiwiSaver scheme design and broader portfolio construction considerations.

I expect the Summit will provide a great opportunity to hear about current issues and trends for this asset class in the Australian context (with its significantly larger asset base), and what relevance they may have locally.
