This document analyzes the incorporation of private capital into an asset portfolio, and its potential to improve long-term returns. Asset allocation should consider expected return, risk and the correlation between different assets, as well as the investor's risk tolerance. Private capital allows exposure to companies that are not accessible through public markets and helps to improve portfolio diversification by having a lower correlation with public assets. However, their selective incorporation must entail knowledge and acceptance of their liquidity and management risks. The document uses historical data to show how the incorporation of private capital improves the return of portfolios, especially those that are more oriented towards equity assets, and in a long-term investment horizon.

This report examines whether the results obtained by private equity FoFs compensate for these fees and analyzes the importance of diversification and access to high-performing managers.”
