Private Markets are non-publicly traded investments with a long-term focus, where providers are actively involved and add value both financially and operationally. Private Markets offer opportunities for diversification and attractive return prospects due to their focus on long-term value creation. This investment category has been gaining traction recently.
To provide investors with more background information, we’ve compiled the ING Private Markets guide. We explain several key concepts and offer insights into how Private Markets can be integrated into a well-diversified investment portfolio.
