Marquette Speaking at Midwest LP Summit 4/18

January 24, 2024

On Thursday, April 18, Jessica Noviskis, CFA and Evan Frazier, CFA, CAIA will be speaking at Portfolio Summits’ Midwest LP Summit in Chicago.

Jessica will be moderating a panel entitled, “Piling into Private Markets,” described as follows: As alternative investments have become increasingly mainstream, investors have plunged deeply into private equity and more recently there has been a growing interest in private credit and private debt. Are the attractive returns some have found in private markets an inherent attribute of these markets, or are they likely to disappear if there is too much money chasing too few opportunities? What’s the right way to access private markets? And how can investors determine which managers are best equipped for this asset class? What’s the right way to access private markets and what are the risk factors to consider and how do you assess them?

Evan will be moderating a panel entitled, “Is There Any Alternative to Alternatives?” described as follows: There’s growing interest in alternative investments like private equity, venture capital, real estate, and hedge funds. These asset classes diversify portfolios beyond traditional assets, but what risks do they create? And will the rush into alternatives inevitably arbitrage away any excess returns they might deliver?
