Private Markets Focus: Go beyond the surface, understanding the depth

Wednesday 22 April 2026, Central London 

Private Markets are shifting into focus, pushing schemes to rethink the shape of long-term value. Fuelled by the momentum of the Mansion House reforms, a growing policy emphasis on productive finance and an increasing appetite for diversified returns, they are becoming a prominent part of the industry conversation.

With this new growth comes new demands. Governance expectations are rising, and scale, access and liquidity are now central to decisions as the industry learns what successful participation looks like. For schemes, the question is how to navigate this with clarity, confidence and a clear sense of purpose.

Professional Pensions invites you to its Private Market Focus: Beyond the Surface, Understanding the Depth, where we’ll examine the asset classes gaining institutional traction, unpack the governance and resourcing models needed to support them and consider the forces shaping the pace and direction of private market investing.

Connect with industry peers, hear from those already charting the course and gain the insight needed to engage with private markets on your own terms. Step beyond the surface of traditional investing and into the deeper dimensions that define this emerging landscape.
