A new attitude to private equity, from a desirable investment to a risky one, has caused institutional investors to demand more visibility and regulation. This coupled with proposed new government regulations has created a new environment for traditional private equity investments. Hear from speakers representing the spectrum of institutional investors and fund of funds discuss their outlook on the next year, how they’re adapting, and where they think the returns will be.

On April 21st Argyle Executive Forum presents its 2010 Endowment & Foundation Spotlight on Investing in Private Equity Funds, taking place in Manhattan. The event brings together a select group of 80-100 senior investment officers from endowments, foundations, pension funds, fund of funds, and consultants, as well as select founders/senior managing partners of private investment firms, to discuss the future of private equity as an asset class.

Please note that the limited seating for members of the advisory community is offered first to those that are supporting the event as sponsors. Participation by partnership organizations (advisory firms, vendors, etc) is limited to clients of Argyle Executive Forum. Argyle meetings are by invitation only.
