Private equity allocations cautiously up, says LPEQ study

Only 4% of the investors surveyed expect their private equity allocation to decrease. That said, the vast majority (80%) do not expect to change their allocation to the asset class at all. Meanwhile, alternative asset allocations as a whole remain steady at 20% on average.

The survey also finds that illiquidity is the greatest barrier to investing in privately-held companies, according to 79% of respondents. The study highlights the attractiveness of listed private equity in that regard, with 55% of investors mentioning the ability to access and exit on demand as the strongest attribute of this type of vehicle.
