Key findings from the Future of Alternatives 2027 report include:
- Venture capital leading as fastest growing asset class: Venture capital (VC) is forecast to be the fastest growing asset class in the next few years (+19.1% growth per year, from $1.46tn end-2021 to $4.17tn by 2027), followed by infrastructure (+13.3%), and private debt (+10.8%). North America will be the main driver for VC funding – annual fundraising in the region is expected to grow from $118bn at the end of 2021 to $223bn by the end of 2027. Fundraising in Europe is also expected to grow to $30.5bn by the end of 2027, up from $21.3bn at the end of 2021.
- Risk-off environment set to slow growth in previously strong assets: Despite the forecast that VC will be the strongest growing asset class, the rate of AUM growth will slow considerably. Similar trends are evident in private equity markets, which are impacted by the rising cost of debt and weaker valuations. Similarly, hedge funds could struggle, with a return to outflows. A more challenging outlook is expected for real estate, with rising interest rates and inflationary concerns slowing expected AUM growth to 8.4% per year.
- North America to lead the way in AUM growth: North America is set to be the fastest growing region globally for private capital, with AUM in the region expected to grow at a rate of 12.7% per year between 2021-2027. APAC markets are expected to see growth of 10.0% per year, with AUM set to almost double to $2.08tn – up from $1.17tn at the end of 2021; Growth in Europe (10.9%) is expected to be slightly higher than APAC, and AUM in the region will reach $4.1tn by the end of 2027, up from $2.2tn at the end of 2021.
Performance boosts VC growth, and inflation-proofing expected via private debt and infrastructure assets
Strong annual performance is expected to be one of the drivers of AUM growth across VC markets, with the asset class expected to return +14.6% annually from 2021-2027. This comes despite headwinds from a deteriorating macro environment, which is expected to hit current valuations, reduce the number and value of exits, and increase the cost of capital.
Private debt markets are proving resilient against a tough backdrop of weaker macroeconomic fundamentals, with a forecasted AUM growth of 10.8% annually. This is largely due to the prevalence of floating rate exposure in direct lending compared to traditional fixed income products, building in some resiliency and inflation protection for investors. With US dollar strength and increased interest rates on offer, international investors are expected to flock to North America for private debt opportunities, given it remains the home of the world’s foremost reserve currency.
Infrastructure is forecasted to perform strongly with a predicted 13.3% of annual growth in AUM (reaching $1.88trn of assets by 2027), closing the gap to real estate in AUM terms – rising from 76% of real estate AUM in 2021 to 88% in 2027. European infrastructure is expected to lead the way, with AUM annual growth of 17.8%, reflecting the region’s growing need to invest in energy generation capacity, reducing a reliance on Russian supplies.
Other findings from the Preqin Future of Alternatives 2027 report include:
- Hedge funds: Hedge funds are bottom of the AUM growth table, with 3.45% annual growth forecasted from H1 2022 to 2027. This year has been challenging for the hedge fund industry resulting in a forecasted decline in AUM in the short run, but a recovery is expected over the next few years.
- Private equity: Global private equity fundraising is expected to see modest growth over the period following declines of 21% and 3% in 2022 and 2023 respectively, while performance is expected to soften compared to that seen in recent years, as macro-economic factors have deteriorated significantly.
- Natural resources: Investor demand for natural resources will continue to grow as the global energy crisis continues and the prospect of a fresh commodity super cycle boosts the recovery of the asset class, with predicted AUM growth of 6.2%, to reach $297bn by the end of 2027.
