Writing for Funds Europe, Guernsey Finance Deputy
Chief Executive, Strategy, Dr Andy Sloan examines findings from
research conducted earlier this year into private equity's
relationship with private capital.
Reflecting our status as a leading centre for servicing funds,
private equity and private capital, earlier this year at
SuperReturn, Guernsey Finance undertook a survey to better
understand several developing trends:
- the increasing significance of
private capital as a source of funds;
- growing concerns with the regulatory
burden and a 'flight to service'; and
- the growing investment appetite for
green finance.
Our survey spanned the complete range of managers, from smaller,
owner-managed boutiques to institutional. The sample represented
managers of funds of more than $1.9 trillion AUM.
