As institutional and retail capital continue to flow into private markets, we believe the infrastructure supporting investment decisions hasn’t fully kept pace. The real challenge isn’t just access to opportunity; it’s access to reliable, data.

In this episode of Critical Thinking, Mercer’s Global Head of Analytics and Portfolio Solutions, Rob Ansari is joined by Chris Sparenberg, Head of Business for iLEVEL at S&P Global, and Jad Stella, Senior Director on the Digital Product Management team at Cambridge Associates, to unpack the current state of private markets data and what could be possible if the industry came together to help deliver more consistent, timely information.
