Asset Management and Investment Funds Committee (Lead)

Description

This panel will discuss the evolving equation between GPs and LPs in the context of current economic conditions, market trends, and regulatory changes, including how these factors are potentially reshaping the priorities and strategies of LPs and GPs. Issues to be covered will include:

  • Evolving market and regulatory dynamics and their impact: are these factors aligning priorities and strategies of GPs and LPs?
  • Transparency, reporting and ESG: is there a mismatch of expectations?
  • Alignment of interests: myth or reality?
  • Continuation vehicles: strengthening long-term partnerships and resolving conflicts of interest.
  • Handling downturns: GP and LP perspectives – does it make or break relationships?
  • Strengthening GP-LP relationships:  exploring new emerging themes that can help build a strong relationship.
